Re: cursor auto select

It is a characteristic of the 'single-click' behavior you choose in Control
Panel/Folder Options.
"Single click to open an Item (point to select)"

Hi Ruilowteck,

As Mark posted, it is a feature of Single Click. You will need to use the Double Click option instead to stop this and be able to select a item by clicking on it once instead. This tutorial will show you how to if needed.

Single Click option

Hope this helps,
Shawn
