I recently got a gaming mouse and it seems to have two additional buttons at the side. So I wanted to program them for something useful. I though maybe one can type out my username and the other, my password.Is there a way to to that ?
 
Solution
Nvm i found out how to do it. In X-mouse you have to go to the button. Then go to Simulated Keys. And on the top there is a place to write called custom key.
Just write what you want there and it works perfectly. :)
The manual doesn't say anything about reprograming the buttons. What they do rn is, when browsing one goes a page backwards the other, forwards,
I downloaded a program called X-MOUSE which successfully reprograms them but I can't find anything about the buttons writing a text.
