I map the right mouse button to the "r" key (simulated) and hit apply. It doesn't change anything. Not sure what else to try. I JUST installed this program, so please forgive.:

Sorry, not a lot to go on there. I have no idea why it wouldn't work at all.... Unless its a configuration issues, I'd expect some change (like for example the right button no longer being right click). So it doesn't work at all in any programs (like notepad)?
Probably the best option right now would be for you to enable debug logging (settings->Logging & updates tab) OK and APPPLY that, then press the right button a few times in various programs, then send me a copy of the debug log file (can be accessed from the same tab). Otherwise, its complete guess work with very little to go on.
I'm away this weekend though so I probably wont be able to get back to you until Monday earliest, unless its really obvious (and simple to fix) whats going on from the log!
Regards,
Phil

OK thanks for the detail!!
What did you do to fix it? - I'm only asking because others may benefit by sharing this knowledge!

I just put it in debug mode like you said.

OK putting it in debug mode shouldn't fix it, just make it log more information, that can be used to find out why it is not working.
Also note that debug mode will automatically turn off (as it slows things down a lot - which I suppose could make a difference here maybe).
If it stops working when debug mode is disabled, let me know, otherwise it sounds like it simply hadn't properly applied the settings!

I reset everything and now it's working outside of the debug mode. Not sure what's going on, but it sounds like you're right.
