Text selection issue on double-click behavior in Windows 10

Hi,

I recently bought a new laptop, in which I have Windows 10 running. When I try to select URLs by double-clicking on them, the hypen (-) and question mark (?) characters act as delimiters, not allowing me to select the full URL.

For example, if open notepad (or even do it on the current text field where I'm typing this message), or other softwares like Dreamweaver, and then double click the following text on the 1st word, it only selects "just-", and not the whole URL like I would like it to do:

just-a-test.com

I wanted Windows to behave the same way it did on Windows XP, and simply select the full URL/word/text, by not using hyphens or question marks as delimiters in these double clicking actions.

Does anyone know how to solve this?

Regards,

Guilherme

Why can”t it just stay high lighted as the over windows. It is too much trouble and it slow me down.

try tripple or quadruple clicking it. Or like, double click it two times with a specific timing. that usually does it for me. MY problem though is that with some words it selects the whole word except forthe last to letters for example. only happens with certain words involvins special characters.

Did you ever figure this issue out? I went to "additional mouse settings" in the Control Panel and turned on Click Lock. Now I am able to click once to insert the cursor, twice to highlight the word, and three times to highlight multiple words or a paragraph. I also slowed down the speed of my mouse because I noticed that it wasn't working properly at the fastest speed. All of this should be in the "additional mouse settings."

Hope this helps!

ClickLock is a feature in Windows 10 that allows you to double-click to select a word and then triple-click to select the entire sentence or paragraph. This can be helpful if you are having trouble selecting the entire URL when you double-click on it.

To turn on ClickLock, follow these steps:

  1. Open the Settings app.
  2. Click Devices.
  3. Click Mouse.
  4. Scroll down to the Related settings section and click Additional mouse options.
  5. In the Mouse Properties window, click the Buttons tab.
  6. Under ClickLock, select the Turn on ClickLock checkbox.
  7. Click Apply and then OK.

Now, when you double-click on a word, it will be selected. To select the entire URL, simply triple-click on it.
