How to Change the Secondary Click Setting for Mouse on Mac

If you use a Mouse with your Mac or MacBook and are not satisfied with how the Mouse behaves when you ‘right-click’ on it, then you can change a setting called Secondary Click.

The Secondary Click setting lets you choose whether the left or right side of your mouse performs that right-click action. This is useful for those who have switched to the Mac from a Windows PC or left-handed individuals who want to change the mouse orientation to suit their needs.
