Disable Hover Feature

Er... I was commenting on my ignorance, not yours, and was requesting more details about the feature you were inquiring about.  Can you elaborate on what you are referring to as the "hover feature"?

With Windows 10 Microsoft has introduced yet another "feature" in which by default if you allow your mouse to"hover over" a hyperlink, it will helpfully "click" said hyperlink for you. Or to put it another way, each time you want to stop moving your mouse, you have to first ensure you have moved the cursor to a safe "parking zone", or the frigging OS will start clicking for you.

Since the Control Panel option to turn off this "feature" does not work (at least, it hasn't worked for any of the thousands of people who have reported that it does not work), this should become the greatest boon to those who want to download malware to our machines since the invention of the modem. Social engineering is no longer necessary! MS has introduced auto-malware-downloads.

is this the same prob your trying to fix?

this problem is with ALL windows. where ever the curser/pointer rests if it is on any thing. it makes it do what ever pointer rests on, like if I'm looking around a web page/ site and my pointer just goes over ( with out stopping on it, just brushes over the box ) the drop down menu will open and it will open covering what I wanted to look at so I have to move the pointer OFF the object and left click the mouse on an open spot where there are no objects to select. this problem s on XP/VISTA/7/8/AND 10. I do not want anything to happen when the pointer touches anything unless I click on it!

I have bought hp pavilionx2 tablet and cannot disable hover pointer

Have tried solution suggested but didnt work for me

It's weird, because I go through that process and I look at the box and it's not even checked. I tried to check it and uncheck it and it still doesn't work. It is so weird. Seems like a glitch to me.
