Mouse: Right-click/left-click are reversed. How do I change this?

Windows 10 using Microsoft Edge.

How do I change the mouse setting so that instead of clicking on the right side of the mouse, I can change it back to clicking on the left side of the mouse. I inadvertently changed it and can't get the setting back to where I made the change.

Thank you.

* Moved from Edge

* Original title: mouse

    Hi Will

    Open the Settings App

    Go to Devices - Mouse

    Set your Primary button to Left

    Check to see if the issue is resolved

    If not

    Open Control Pane - Mouse

    On the resulting dialog, click the Buttons Tab

    If 'Switch Primary and Secondary Buttons' is checked, uncheck it

    Save that setting

    Thanks for taking the time to provide your answer; however, early this morning I finally reached my computer tech who took care of that problem and a few more that I was experiencing. Regards, Bill
