VMware Fusion Ctrl Click Issues

The default configuration for running windows inside of VMware Fusion on a mac is to have ctrl + left click act as a right click. This can cause issues when trying to select multiple files etc. Fortunately, this setting is easily disabled in the Keyboard and Mouse settings for the virtual machine.

  1. Go to settings
  2. Go to Keyboard & Mouse settings.
  3. Edit the Windows 10 profile
  4. Uncheck the option for Secondary Button
  5. Save and exit

This simple fix will save you a lot of frustration. Hope it help!
