Devices Change Touchpad Double Click Speed on Microsoft Surface Devices

This tutorial will show you how to change the double click speed on a Precision Haptic Touchpad for your account on Microsoft Surface devices running Windows 11.

The double click speed setting is the time between clicks to register a double click on the touchpad.

If you find the double click speed too sensitive (fast) or not sensitive enough (slow), you can adjust the double click speed to what works best for you.







1 Open the Surface app.

2 Click/tap on Touchpad settings to expand it open. (see screenshot below)


3 Adjust the Double click speed slider left (very slow) or right (fast) to the speed you want. (see screenshot below)


4 You can now close the Surface app if you like.





1 Open the Control Panel (icons view), and click/tap on the Mouse icon.

2 Click/tap on the Buttons tab. (see screenshot below)

3 Adjust the Double-click speed slider left (slow) or right (fast) to the speed you want.

4 Click/tap on OK.

5 You can now close the Control Panel if you like.







1 Open Registry Editor (regedit.exe).

2 Navigate to the key below in the left pane of Registry Editor. (see screenshot below)



3 In the right pane of the Mouse key, double click/tap on the DoubleClickSpeed string value (REG_SZ) to modify it. (see screenshot above)

4 Type a number between 200 (faster) to 2000 (slower) for the double click speed you want, and click/tap on OK. (see screenshot below)

The default double click speed is 480.

5 Close Registry Editor when finished.

6 Either sign out and sign in or restart the computer to apply.


That's it,
