I have Enterprise running on a few dozen boxes already and have never seen this.

Maybe that is it. I'm running Enterprise, so maybe it's home?

It is on a Toshiba Satellite laptop with home premium. The web has a lot of 
people complaining about the feature, so it must be there. The fact that yours 
does not do it show me that there is a way to turn it off. Maybe it is only on 
the home premium. I was just getting worried that when we roll it out, we will 
have a bunch of issues if it is activated.

 

There are check boxes that turn this feature on and off for menu selection, but 
this feature is like pressing the enter key or double clicking on an item.

None of mine do either and I have over a dozen running Windows 7 that I use 
regularly.

Any chance this is a mouse/touchpad driver feature?

Am I the only one that hates this feature? It seems like such a security 
nightmare, where users will hover over a popup to read it ,and the hover-click 
feature will automatically execute it. (Honest, I never downloaded that porn, 
it just clicked itself! And they are right. )

 

How to disable it? I see on Google lots about setting the hover time to 0, but 
there are warnings against doing that. What is the best way to disable this 
feature?
