Is there any way to set up an affect so that my mouse button when pressed acts like a turbo button, clicking faster that I can physically manage, or some program where I can set a keyboard key to act like turbo mouse clicking? ---

[Autohotkey](https://www.autohotkey.com/) will allow you to remap a keyboard key to a left mouse click. You can do it in one line. See their documentation about [Remapping Keys](https://www.autohotkey.com/docs/misc/Remap.htm). ---

Is there anything less complicated? ---

I can use the Windows 10 keyboard mouse function to turn a keypad 5 into a LMB click, so anything that would turbo a keyboard key would work as well. ---

Using Autohotkey and following a recipe is probably the easiest thing out there for this. I set up up a keyboard shortcut on my computer for some stupid clicking game I just felt I had to beat that ran automatic mouseclicks at a high rate. Warning! If you do use it, and then forget about it for several months and decide to use it again, make sure you check first what your keyboard shortcut is for pausing it! I found out it’s impossible to do anything on the computer when the mouse is on automatic turbo click and had to do a hard reset! ---

Autohotkey is too complicated, I don’t understand the instructions. ---

I don’t use Win 10, but isn’t key repeat standard on all computers? There should be a setting in the system, would imagine. Does this help? [https://bltt.org/adjust-windows-keyboard-repeat-rate/#:~:text=Windows%2010,repeats%20itself%20once%20it%20starts](https://bltt.org/adjust-windows-keyboard-repeat-rate/#:~:text=Windows%2010,repeats%20itself%20once%20it%20starts). The problem is that it would be global – not key specific. ---

When I played a similar game, I used this: > **[MouseClicker.net - Auto Mouse Clicker 2022 {Official Site}](https://mouseclicker.net/)** > > Download auto clicker 2022 to automate your mouse clicking. It is completely safe and virus free. Mouseclicker.net provides a true auto clicker with multiple modes as per your clicking requirements. You can set it up to just click a specific point a whole lot, or you can set up multiple places, as well as timing. ---

Yeah, that looks more like it. There’s a few other “auto clickers” out there now that I search for those terms. I think that should help the OP out. Here’s another one. I can’t try it on my computer, but it looks also to have the functionality (but it’s only free for 20 uses): > **[Auto Clicker](https://www.murgee.com/auto-clicker/)** > > Download Auto Clicker to Click Mouse Cursor Automatically at fixed or current Mouse Cursor Location. The Auto Clicker supports Configurable Leyboard Shortcut to start / stop Automated fast or slow Mouse Clicking. ---

> [@k9bfriender](#): > > You can set it up to just click a specific point a whole lot, or you can set up multiple places, as well as timing. I stand corrected. It’s been a few years since I searched, and at the time, either because the options didn’t exist or because of weak google-fu I could only find similar programs the internet warned included malware. ---

I don’t think so, but it had a hotkey to set the point. You just hit the hotkey for that, click the screen, then hit the hotkey to start clicking. I haven’t used it since the days of cookie clicker, so I don’t really remember all that well, but it was pretty convenient to use. ---

I clicked on the download link and got to [Download | MouseClicker.Net - Free Auto Clicker Online](https://mouseclicker.net/download/). It does that crap thing a lot of download sites do, making other program links prominant to trick you into clicking on the wrong link, but as far as I can tell, there is no real link at all. ---

I found the same program on another site, and it’s ridiculously slow. I need to beat the competition on a first registered click when someone leaves gets the seat type deal. This isn’t going to help me, I set the click speed at 1ms but it obviously can’t actually reach anywhere near that speed, topping out at 5 clicks per second, which I can easily beat. ---

> [@CardboardBoxx](#): > > I need to beat the competition on a first registered click when someone leaves gets the seat type deal. Sounds like you’re looking for something more along the lines of browser automation scripting, such as [Tampermonkey](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/58028938/looking-for-a-way-to-auto-press-a-button-on-a-web-page-every-x-minutes) or [Selenium](https://www.techlistic.com/2019/08/automate-buy-product-using-selenium.html), although if AutoHotkey is too complicated for you, the odds are these will be as well. ---

You’re not going to get simpler than Autohotkey: Loop, 10 Click Replace the 10 with however many clicks = “Turbo” ---

If it’s so simple could ypu explain all the steps (step by step) to make that useful?
