Every operation that is repeated on the computer, you can make it automatic with software that does the job for us. Automatically clicking the mouse button is something that can facilitate some repetitive tasks at work or even in some video games that require it, which saves effort and time when needed.
For example, when you copy the contents of a folder on the fly with the photos inside, inside another folder, used for backup, you are probably faced with the repeated appearance of the message " A file with the same name already exists, you want to overwrite the existing file "> Another example is the automatic correction with Word in which, perhaps you want to ignore the suggested change or you want to add the new word to the internal dictionary.
I know that in both cases there are the options: " Yes to everything " or " Ignore all ", but sometimes it is good to follow what the program wants to do, because maybe, there will be a moment when you want to respond differently and you can then stop autoclick.
In other cases, the automatic click could be useful to automatically refresh a web page in predefined time intervals to always see the updated version, an online game, a flash news site, a travel offers site and so on .
A mouse autoclick tool therefore allows you to simulate pressing the left mouse button at regular intervals, which can be repeated quickly or more slowly depending on your preferences.
