Computer constantly left clicks

So I recently had this problem (like 5-10 minutes ago) where my lenovo laptop constantly left clicked ..

I was reading a stream chat then I wanted to go visit twitter when I noticed that the computer was left clicking everything all the time.

It took like a minute before I properly comprehended the problem (it was with trackpad also and not a mouse problem).

I tried unplugging my usb mouse and then re-plugging it but it made no difference.

 

I fixed it by restarting the computer.

But I have never had this before so I wonder how it could happen and how to fix it in the future.

 

Edit: I am on Windows 8.1 and yes I did fix it by restarting the computer.

I have looked for driver update for both mouse and track pad.

If you have a second mouse try disabling the trackPad, if it works its most likely broken

Did you try restarting the computer?


See if there is any driver updates too. A driver might have went corrupt.

My track pad is sometimes not the most responsive/reliable one but it is definitely not broken
