hit delete on everything and reboot and windows should reinstall mice drivers



i mean it sounds like you might have a clicklock issue

I was able to see clicklock was not on, but I'll try the other steps you mentioned.

Mouse driver correct. Windows update done. Things will work for a minute then stop. If I go to task manager and end Windows Explorer it fixes the mouse operation and things are back to normal, but then it will get wonky all on its own.

Only right-click works. Can't left-click and moving cursor over icons does not highlight them like it should (on task bar, for instance).

ctrl, alt, delete and restart windows explorer will do a fix for 20-60 seconds then the mouse stops working again.

I did remove the mouse drivers and let the computer download again, but that didn't end up helping.

Nope.

It just works for a minute now, then stops working entirely, unless I reset Windows Explorer. Thinking I have to restore PC to a few days ago, or fresh install Windows.
