Should I repair or replace a double-clicking mouse?
Answer whether a double-clicking mouse is worth switch repair, debounce, or replacement after confirming switch bounce.
Short answer
Repair can make sense if the mouse is valuable, comfortable, and only one switch bounces. Replace it when the wheel, sensor, cable, battery, or shell is also failing, or when soldering costs more than the mouse is worth.
Confirm first
Confirm bounce with slow single clicks.
Compare left and right buttons.
Choose switch repair or replacement by total fault cost.
Why this matters
HWProbe keeps the answer tied to evidence: run the matching browser test, try the reversible fix, then replace only when the same fault repeats. Tests run locally in your browser at hwprobe.com.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is debounce software enough for a double-clicking mouse? +
Debounce software can hide light bounce for a while, but it does not restore the switch contact. Treat it as temporary if slow single clicks still create duplicates.
When is mouse switch repair worth it? +
It is worth considering when the mouse is expensive, the sensor and wheel are healthy, and you or a repair shop can replace the switch cleanly.
