Efficiency Tip #50 – Click Right

Know when to single-click versus double-click.  All icons on your desktop or in Windows Explorer will require two clicks to activate.

After a program starts, most buttons (tool bars, menus) will require just one click.

While using your browser, everything will require one click.  This is true of links to web sites.  Don’t waste a second click on them.  The first one is all it takes.

You can modify your Windows settings to make most items that are normally a double-click into a single-click.  Look in the Folder Options of Windows Explorer.  This is especially useful if you shake from too much caffeine consumption and have a hard time getting that second click on the same spot as the first.
