- X-Mouse Button Control is a windows application to remap your mouse buttons.
- Where normal mouse control uses single-click for selection and double-click to open/edit/etc, the xmouse system automatically selects objects after hovering the mouse over the object for a certain period of time (often one second). The context function, previously activated by double-clicking, is activated by single-clicking.
- X-Mouse Button Control is a free, comprehensive application that lets you remap mouse buttons for increased, versatile functionality. You can create multiple profiles, each for a different application or window. Each profile can have up to 5.

Overview:
X-Mouse Button Control (XMBC) allows you to create application and window specific profiles. This in turn, allows you to re-configure your mouse behaviour for individual applications or windows. For each profile you can also configure up to 10 'layers' of different button configurations which you can switch between using hot-keys or mouse buttons.
By default, profiles are automatically activated as the mouse moves over the defined window or application.
This has many uses, for example:
- Changing the behaviour of the mouse over certain windows, such as making the mouse wheel change volume when hovering over the system tray or you-tube video.
- In games which do not natively support the extended, 4th and 5th mouse buttons, you can map keys to each button.
XMBC allows you to change the behaviour of the mouse buttons and scroll wheel. The extensive list of functions available to map to your mouse buttons includes options such as:
- Send any keys using the 'simulated keystrokes' editor
- Cording (shifting/combining) buttons perform different actions
- Timed button actions, that change depending how long you hold a button down for
- Launch any windows application
- Clipboard control (Copy/Cut/Paste)
- Media control (Play/Pause/Stop/Volume/Mute etc.)
- Capture screen (or active window) image to clipboard
- Click-Drag [Sticky buttons/keys]
- Click-Drag [Sticky buttons/keys]
- Various support for specific Windows operating systems, such as Flip3D in Vista, ModernUI/Metro in Windows 8 and Virtual Desktops in Windows 10!
- And much, much more!
For more information about using and configuring X-Mouse Button Control, please check out the new user guide (mirror).
X-Mouse Button Control currently supports Windows XP, 2003, 2003 R2, Vista, 2008, 2008 R2, 7, 8, 2012, 8.1, 2012 R2, 2016 & 2019 (GUI version) and 10.
It was originally designed to run natively on x64 editions of Windows but it is fully supported on 32bit editions too! The installation determines what version is required (x64 or x86) automatically during installation.

Charity:
In October 2018, I and two friends will be taking part in the 26th Club Triumph Round Britain Reliability Run.
The event once again involves a 2000 mile drive around Great Britain in a classic Triumph Stag saloon, all in 48 hours, pretty much non-stop except for food/fuel breaks!
This year, the chosen charity is Epilepsy Research UK so perhaps, instead of donating directly to XMBC, you could sponsor us instead. Two years ago, XMBC users made a big difference to our fundraising so be sure to leave a comment mentioning XMBC so I can see how many donations are as a result of you good XMBC users.
Please note that donations are just that. They are not intended to be used to persuade me to add new features or provide extra support - I do as much as I can for free and don't expect donations (although they are appreciated). You can donate with PayPal using the donate button.
You can also donate using Bitcoin using the button below:
Installation/Upgrade Information:
The installer will automatically close an existing instance of XMBC so you do not need to close or uninstall an old version before installing the latest.
X-Mouse Button Control is configured to run automatically when you log on to Windows.
This can be changed using MSConfig or the start-up tab in Task Manager on Windows 8 or later.
Requirements:
- A mouse and driver that supports up to 5 buttons.
NOTE: If your mouse has 5 buttons but the 4th and 5th buttons don't do anything in by default - then XMBC may not be for you. This software relies on the driver to send the default 4th and 5th mouse button messages which usually default to BACK/NEXT in browsers and other programs. Having said that you can still remap the standard 2 buttons and scroll wheel. - A compatible version of Microsoft Windows.
X-Mouse Button Control supports all 32bit (x86) and 64bit (x64) editions of Windows from Windows XP to 10, including Windows Server editions!
FAQ:
- I have moved all the FAQ's to the forum to keep things consistent. Please take a look at this thread
- If your question is not answered in the FAQ, please take a look through the forums and see if your question has been asked there.
If not, sign up and ask away! - Please be aware that I have had many requests for XMouse but unfortunately I have also have far less time these days to work on it.
I am primarily focusing on bugs that stop current functionality working rather than adding new functionality.

A simple and effective software utility that helps you to expand the capabilities of your mouse and quickly remap all the buttons
What's new in X-Mouse Button Control 2.19.2:
- Fixed crash when restoring desktop icons.
- Checking profiles using keyboard does not enable apply button.
- Fixed a problem with the BugTrap crash reporter failing to submit reports (silently).
- Fixed a problem with ActivateOnHover timer causing multiple activations.
X-Mouse Button Control is a software solution that allows you to reconfigure the buttons of your mouse.
The user interface of the program is based on a standard window in which you can add, edit, copy and remove application or window profiles (on the left part of the screen).
Thus, you can select an action for up to five mouse buttons, wheel up and down, as well as tilt wheel left and right.
The action can vary from 'Alt+Tab', 'Activate Monitor Power Saving', 'Activate Screensaver', 'Browser Favorites', 'Browser Refresh', 'Change Movement to Scroll', 'Close', 'Copy', 'Cut', 'Disable' and 'Double Click'.
A mouse button can also activate 'Enter', 'Escape', 'Forward', 'Lock Workstation', 'Maximize Window', 'Media', 'Next Track', 'Open Control Panel', 'Open Explorer', 'Print Screen', 'Undo', 'Simulated Keystrokes', and other actions.
Below the layers you can view profile information on the description, process, window class and parent class. Also, it is possible to reset the layer at any moment.
In the 'Settings' menu, you can adjust the mouse speed, disable profile switching on mouse move, enable debug logging, ignore NumLock state for 'Simulated Keystrokes', enable global keyboard shortcuts and modifiers keys, and more.
The program uses a very low amount of system resources. Unfortunately, it doesn't contains a help file but learning how how to use X-Mouse Button Control is easily done.

We would have liked the possibility of opening a specific application by pressing the button of the mouse. Also, the user interface could use some improvements. Otherwise, we haven't come across any kind of problems during our tests and strongly recommend this software to all users.
