Mouse Clicking Problem?

Out of nowhere, my mouse suddenly is unable to utilize both left and right click simultaneously. But they work fine if used separately. Am currently playing a game where R-click is for aim and L-click is for fire, so I am in need of a fix. Unsure if it is hardware or software. Please and thank you.

I've tried restarting my pc, re-plugging the mouse, changing port, un-installing the mouse but still nothing. BTW, this happened in the middle of the game, thought I was glitching, but I tried it on a different game and the same thing happened.

    If its a wireless mouse, a lot of times, wireless peripherals have a limited amount of simultaneous inputs.

    Since you mentioned "re-plugging" it, I'm guessing its wired.

    I'd suggest trying it in another computer. If the issue persists, it could be the mouse failing.

    A more expensive option for testing the issue, and one that you might need to do anyway, would be buying another mouse to see if it has the same behavior.

    If it does, then it could be your computer failing.
