Ok, apparently on chromebooks only, in the chrome settings -> advanced -> accessibility -> "Automatically click when the mouse pointer stops"

This is a feature that automatically performs a left click if you hover your mouse over a button. I'm not sure why, but this setting keeps re-enabling itself. Not much out there other than disable extensions, which we've done. Uncheck the box, it fixes the problem, then a day later grumpy customer calls back with "it's broken again". The setting is buried enough that I can't believe it is being enabled accidentally. I'm starting to think it's a bug - although I'm far from an expert on ChromeOS.

This is NOT a managed device.

Anyone else run into this?
