Okay, so I have an update.
I ended up giving up on the Orochi and using a cheap Logitech backup for the past few months. I finally decided to give fixing it another go today and figured out something that may be the cause of the issue. Its fixed as of right now, but time will tell if it stays that way. I’ll message back if it goes back to glitching out again.
So I noticed when I right clicked on the desktop it would create a drag box, and then after a delay open the right click menu, which I hadn't picked up on before(in 2.4ghz mode). Next I decided to check a mouse clicking test program (Link below). I found sometimes it would register a click and other times it wouldn't (the software detects any kind of click, left, right, glitchy double clicks, etc.)
I think these two behaviors are giving me the seemingly random clicking behavior. It depends on the program you're in at the time as to how it responds to the glitch. In some programs, eg. the desktop, it seemingly left clicks and if I move the mouse and click somewhere else it seems like that's all it does, but if I wait a bit it finally registers a right click. In other programs it either never activates the right click function, but still registers a click having happened, or it just doesn't register anything at all, like it did in the click tester.
After doing a bit of searching, I figured its probably something to do with how the system is processing the right click function if there is a delay for whatever reason. Did a little google and found this → https://helpdeskgeek.com/windows-10/right-click-slow-on-windows-10-5-fixes-to-try/
Only had to do the first step and now it is seemingly working. But to be specific here’s what I did:
- Test if left click is working in 2.4ghz. I just dragged a window around and clicked on random stuff. Seemed to be working fine for me.
- Test if right click is working on the desktop. Click once and wait a few seconds. It may initially create drag box if you move the mouse, but in my case, after a few seconds it would eventually bring up the right click menu.
- Navigate to https://codepen.io/blink172/pen/vERyxK and test left click to make sure its responding normally and to get idea of what a normal response looks like. Again, for me, left was behaving normally.
- Now do the same with the right mouse button. On my system it would sometimes register a click and sometimes not. Would have been around a 50/50 at a guess.
*Side note: If I moved my mouse up to the top of the browser frame, it would sometimes bring up the right click menu like it did on the desktop, but without me having clicked recently. Weird, huh? - If so far all these things have happened to you, congratulations! We are having exactly the same issue!
- Navigate to https://helpdeskgeek.com/windows-10/right-click-slow-on-windows-10-5-fixes-to-try/ and follow the first steps. In my case device manager could not find any drivers on the system, so I went through to Windows update. I noticed it had an optional update for Windows and a prompt to show other hidden/optional updates. After clicking on that I found small number of updates, two of which had Razer at the start and a bunch of random numbers and letters. I clicked to download them and the other optional updates, including the one for Windows.
- Once they had finished downloading, before restarting the system I also checked my graphics drivers using the graphics card manufacturers update app, in my case Nvidia Geforce Experience. I downloaded and installed the update.
*Note: I did this as the guide above said it can sometimes be a graphics driver issue, so I figured I might as well do that as well as the other updates and restart after that. - I restarted the computer via the Windows Update window, and the system finished the installations and rebooted.
- Once the system had finished rebooting I made sure Synapse was open, turned on the Orochi in 2.4ghz mode, and voila! Seemingly fixed!
Hopefully that works for you, if not you could try continuing with the rest of the guide. Ill post an update if anything changes on my end. Good luck!
