Are you struggling to automate your work smoothly? Do you also struggle to get precise clicks at the fastest speed possible? If yes, then this guide is going to help you a lot in your daily tasks.
Setting up an auto clicker is a pretty easy task but without the correct mouse settings, you might not get the desired results you want. And the good news is that you can easily fix it by just doing some simple tweaks.
In this guide, we are going to show you the exact steps to configure your mouse properly so that you can take full advantage of your auto-clicking app while playing games as well as boosting productivity.
About Auto Clickers
If you just landed on this article after hearing from your friend then this quick overview is for you. An auto clicker is a simple program that helps you automate mouse clicks at a specific interval of time. Using them you can easily perform all your repetitive tasks and give your fingers a good break.
They also come in the form of hardware devices but here we will be mostly discussing the application programs. Both of them have similar features like Click type, Click interval, Click repetition, Click location & Hotkeys but the only difference is that the physical devices are hard to use.
Here we have listed some applications that you can use:-
- GT Auto Clicker – Best program if you want the fastest clicks.
- GS Auto Clicker – Free app with lots of customization options.
- OP Auto Clicker – One of the oldest and most highly reliable tool.
- Free Mouse Clicker – A lightweight app with basic features.
By looking at the functions of each program you can select any of them which suits your needs and the best part is that all of them are free.
How to Configure your Mouse for an AutoClicker?
Although, we have already discussed some of the points of using gt auto clicker in our previous article but here we will talk about configuring it according to your specific mouse and much more. Before diving in further, please make sure to check if it is compatible with Windows, Android, macOS, or Chromebook.
Note:- All these settings work on mostly all types of mouse such as Logitech, Dell, HP, Razer, MSI, Zebronics, HyperX, Asus, etc.
Install & Set up Auto Clicker
For installing an auto-clicking app, visit the official website and then download the installation file. After downloading the file, run the installer and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the process. Once everything is set up, launch the program and start configuring each function according to your needs.
Select Mouse Button & Click Type
The first thing you have to set is its clicking type which can be done by choosing the correct click options as per the given task. Generally, you get three different mouse button options (left, right, & middle) and two click types (single & double) which you can choose accordingly.
In most cases, while playing games like Roblox, WOW, Runescape & Minecraft we mostly require the left mouse button so in that case automating the left click as an action button can be very useful while firing, punching, and fighting.
If you are working on some different application such as a web browser then you will need all three buttons to be automated. Like for scrolling and closing the tabs we can automate the middle button whereas the left and right can be used for opening the links and for context menus.
Adjust Clicking Interval
One common reason why most gamers use auto clickers is because they want faster clicks and you can easily achieve it by adjusting the Click interval in the given time frames of milliseconds, seconds, minutes, and hours.
Basically, it’s the time between each automated click generated by the program, and the smaller you set the value of this function, the faster mouse clicks you will get. For example, if you are using it in games like Cookie Clicker then we would suggest you set the click interval to 10ms.
And if you are thinking of using it for data entry jobs or web-browsing tasks then adjusting the clicks at moderate speed is the best option to choose.
Set Click Repetition
Next function that you need to set is the repetition of clicks which basically means how many times the auto-clicker will click automatically without any further input given by the user.
For this you get two options, first one is infinite (Until stopped) which allows you to get unlimited clicks until it is manually stopped and the second one is the Times option where you can enter a fixed number after which the program should stop.
Now to use this function properly, you need to first analyze how many clicks you are going to need for the game you are playing and in which tasks you will be requiring the infinite option. For example, if you are into FPS games then you can use the second option of 3-5 clicks and use it like a burst fire feature.
Pick Screen Location
Once we are done with all the click settings, we have to pick the precise screen location so that we can get the automated clicks at the right location. Because there is no use in getting fast clicks if they are not in the correct place and eventually they will trouble you.
To save you from this you get two options using which you can easily specify your click location, the first option is Current Cursor Position which allows you to get clicks wherever the mouse pointer is placed and the second option is Pick Location which allows you to enter the exact XY coordinates of the screen.
Configure Hotkey
While gaming there are so many situations where you need to act very quickly otherwise your competitor will crush you down. And it’s just not about the fighting games but there are so many other genres such as action, adventure, RPG, and MMORPGs where you can face such situations.
To handle them, Hotkeys are the best way to use which you can easily start and stop the auto-clicker whenever you want. To configure this, you only need to click on the “Hotkeys” button and then assign a combination of keys.
Troubleshooting Issues & Errors
Here we have listed some of the common issues that are generally faced by users while using autoclicker in games or different types of applications:
Not Working
- Check if the auto-clicker is running in the background.
- Please check if all your system drivers are up to date.
- Check if you are using the correct assigned hotkey.
Clicking Too Fast or Slow
- Adjust the click interval settings.
- Check if you have selected the correct click type.
- Test on some other application before running.
Conflicts with Other Software
- Sometimes the pre-installed Windows Defender also blocks the third-party software. So, if this is not the issue.
- Some antivirus programs also block auto-clickers. In that case, please add them to the exception if you truly believe it’s completely safe to use.
- Close unnecessary background applications, especially the third-party apps.
Safety and Ethical Considerations
While auto clickers are pretty useful but we should always consider these points:-
- You should not rely on all auto-clickers because some of them are pretty risky and are also banned due to malicious activities.
- Always use them ethically within the terms of the application.
- Some of the autoclickers are configured to avoid detection but there are so many apps and games out there which can detect them.
- Do not overuse them because it may break the script. You can also check out our post on “Will playing games destroy our phone“.
- If the task is big then always try to complete it in the form of batches.
