Multiple clicks to select in Windows 10

Question

On some computers with Windows 10 using Creo 2 M150, clicking to select something gives the smart filter error about holding the ALT key, but this happens even when it should not. Clicking a few more times will end up performing the selection. Has anyone else had any experience with this on Windows 10 or otherwise?

We've already tried:

Thanks!

For future researchers, this problem was in two separate cases, related to the use of an hdmi tv as a monitor, or using Creo on a Windows Surface laptop.  Things may have improved since then, I'm just closing this out with the solution from the time.
