Right or left mouse button?

Question

IT education

Greetings,

I'm interested in how to explain to a person (I teach parents) where to do two clicks, and where one, and where to click with the right button, and where with the left?

Listing cases, as I understand it, is not really an option, right?

Threat In Windows, of course.

UPD: Okay, clicks are understandable. Now how to deal with the right and left buttons?

Answer 1

Tried to teach - it's unrealistic. Two clicks is clearly obsolete. Nowhere on the Internet is this.
It's easier to put in the settings with one click

Answer 2

The cursor changes its icon, it's obvious. Make it a custom icon for brighter and bigger single-click cases, and everything else.

Answer 3

In general, it seems like if the icon (icon) is two clicks, in other cases one.

Answer 4

It’s easier with parents) That is, briefly and to the point, you don’t need to describe all the details and exceptions, if in 95% of cases they press the right button for the right number of times, this is better. so they will look at the page instructions every time what where how and where. I would try to formulate it this way:
On the Internet - 1 click
Everything else - 2 clicks
Action - left button
Options - right button

Answer 5

buy an Apple, there is only one button: the task will be simplified

Answer 6

wow, a familiar problem, mom is constantly lost with the left and right buttons, just explain after a while she forgets again. I explain as follows, that's what you want on the screen and can press with your finger, then the left button. All sorts of additional options that do not need to press the right button.
In general, I came to the conclusion that it is easier to buy, for example, HP TouchSmart and throw out the mouse

Answer 7

Right help, left - action.
In general, put them some kind of
training application.
For example - Solo on the keyboard, along the way they
explain a lot of useful things for beginners.

Answer 8

On the Internet 1 click, everywhere else 2 clicks.
Left button - accept / click.
Right button - action/function selection.
I somehow explained to my grandmother, I understood. I forgot after a month :)

Answer 9

Buy a mouse with 3 buttons - left, right and double click. More precisely, there will be less headache;)
