To disable middle mouse button click in MS Edge

Question

How can I disable the middle mouse button click in MS Edge and web view 2 runtime applications in my system?

Is there a solution that we can do through the MS Edge settings or registry instead of capturing and preventing the middle mouse clicks in JavaScript?

Hi @O V, Naveen,

Unfortunately, currently Microsoft Edge and WebView2 does not have any setting, policy or registry for disabling certain kind of mouse click. If you would like to request such settings/policy, please consider sending feedback in Microsoft Edge at ··· menu --> Help and feedback --> Send feedback.

As a workaround, I'm afraid you'll need to disable the middle mouse click by JavaScript or scripts like AutoHotKey. Thanks for your understanding.
