I am experiencing a weird issue on my dell laptop. When I click a webpage is will automatically select a few lines of text after my cursor. This happens whether I am using the buttons below the touchpad, or using the touchpad itself (via tapping).

I've recorded a gif of this happening here: https://i.stack.imgur.com/7UViv.jpg

Any ideas?

  • Does it do the same with a regular mouse? – DavidPostill May 25 '15 at 15:59
  • Are you using a Synaptics Mouse driver? – oldmud0 May 25 '15 at 17:17
  • Do you have [ClickLock](http://superuser.com/a/918517/138343) turned on? – Karan May 25 '15 at 17:48
  • Is the problem limited to specific browser? What browser is it? Or is the problem global? What system then? – Kamil Maciorowski May 25 '15 at 20:26
  • I tried to disable all the special dell settings, but it went away when I plugged in a mouse. Before I only noticed it in Chrome, but now with a mouse plugged in, the touchpad is working normally. I'll see if I can narrow this down some more, but for now I'll just use a mouse. – peterw May 26 '15 at 13:21
