Hello everyone, the issue concerns my Cougar mouse's double-clicking problem on the left side. I need to replace its switch but don’t know how to open it since there are no visible screws or clear signs. I reached out to another forum (Ifixit) but received no replies. I’d really appreciate any help, as fixing it would be important even though other functions work fine. I’ll share my question on the site because uploading pictures isn’t possible, and I hope someone can locate the opening area.

Have you attempted removing the bottom skates? Usually, the screws for the mouse are located beneath the bottom skates.

Hello, thank you for your message. I'm not certain about the location of the skates in the images. If you'd like, I can add more photos if that would help.

The red arrows indicate the skates. When taking them off, be careful not to harm them unless you have backups. These elements enable smooth mouse movement across the pad.

I understand you're wondering about the appropriate tool for removing something, and you're considering using a spudger. It might be useful to confirm whether a spudger is suitable for your specific task.

Yes, that works well, especially with an iFixIt tool kit. You need something sharp that can reach under one edge and lift it off easily, without bending or creasing it too much. It should retain a decent amount of adhesive so you can reapply it later once everything is reassembled.

I have the Pro Tech kit and a soldering iron, which means I should be ready to handle it. Just need to replace the switch now. Thanks again for your assistance—it really helps.

Just a quick note and wishing you success with the fix.
If it doesn’t appear to separate easily, there might be a screw beneath the warning label at the base. Usually they’re near the skates, but we can’t eliminate the possibility of one being underneath.
