What is X-Mouse Button Control?
X-Mouse Button Control is a Windows application to remap your mouse buttons and expand the capabilities of your mouse!
You are able to provide application or window specific mappings, which means an application or window can use the mouse buttons differently from another. For each profile you can optionally define up to 5 'layers' of different button configurations which you can switch between using hotkeys or mouse buttons.
You can also alter the behaviour of the scroll and tilt wheel functions, fixing windows that don't normally respond to these controls.
Profiles are automatically activated by moving the mouse over the defined window or alternatively, when the specified application is active.
X-Mouse Button Control supports Windows 2000, XP, 2003, 2003 R2, Vista, 2008, 2008 R2, 7. It was originally designed to run natively on x64 editions of Windows but it is fully supported on 32bit editions too! The installation determines what version is required (x64 or x86) as you run it.

Greatly improves upon not only Windows itself, but alternatives like WizMouse as well. WizMouse is very limited in comparison. Give this app a go, it's fantastic. Really ought to have more likes than Wizmouse et al. (4 stars)

Update: I stopped using XMBC for a while because Windows 10 had finally added the killer feature of scrolling unfocused windows. However I came back to it when looking for a good mouse macro program. Turns out XMBC is perfect for configuring mouse macros for games and such, and it handily replaced my AHK scripts with a single reliable program. Besides the macro features it offers a broad range of customization options not found in the OS settings or other mouse configuration apps. Highly recommended. (5 stars)
Excellent app for mouse with no software support or limited software support You can set macro almost everything even executing scripts and emulating keys which is more than what you expect from such mouse software
Easy to get started with, allows complex scripting of actions. Free, no ads. Highly recommended.
i use it instead of (annoying) Logitech-GHub to use the G402. I can map the extra Mouse-Button. The Menu is a lot cluttered and stale, but it does it job with little ressources.
Simulated keys is the best feature ever. XMB's ability to recognize parent & ancestor windows only adds to the rabbit hole of customization and macros you can generate.
It makes copy/paste enter so efficient on a simple mouse! .. And there's so much more that can be done!.. Note that Layer 2 has many more options than Layer 1 and that it must be manually chosen from the icon to activate.. easy to do. Layer 2 settings can be set to act as Scripting programs. Layer 1 is very easy to set, and making scripts with Layer 2 is pretty easy, too.
Excellent, powerful tool that can be used with or without AutoHotkey. Granted, I believe all of its features can be achieved with AHK, but I find it easier/quicker to set things up quickly using X-Mouse Button Control and usually, I take the lazy route in this regard.
