Hello,
I am running GNU Emacs 28.2 (build 2, x86_64-w64-mingw32)
of 2022-09-13 on Windows 10 64 bits.
The mouse-3 functioning has changed with respect to the
previous version of emacs: how there is a need to click it
twice to cut the region.
How can I make emacs go back to its previous behavior,
i.e. have the mouse-3 button cut the region with one click
only?
Thank you
-Angelo Borsotti

What was the Emacs version where you saw something different? I see
the same behavior in all the versions back to Emacs 25:
<mouse-3> (translated from <down-mouse-3> <mouse-3>) at that spot runs
the command mouse-save-then-kill (found in global-map), which is an
interactive native-compiled Lisp function in ‘mouse.el’.
It is bound to <mouse-3>.
(mouse-save-then-kill CLICK)
Set the region according to CLICK; the second time, kill it.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
So this command always required double-click to actually cut the
region, and the binding of mouse-3 didn't change.

Hi,
unfortunately, I do not remember what version it was, I used it on Windows
32 bits, then I upgraded Windows to 64 bits, and reinstalled emacs using the
latest version.
However, I am one hundred percent sure that mouse-3 required only one click:
I use emacs every day, many hours each day.
Could you tell me how to obtain the killing with only one click?
Thank you

FWIW, I don't think there was ever such a version. Unless you or
someone else customized it so that it didn't work as it should by
default.

I don't see that in any version of Emacs, so I guess you had some
customizations to do that.
> Could you tell me how to obtain the killing with only one click?
Sorry, I don't know. You could write your own command to bind to
mouse-3, I guess. But I see no such command in Emacs OOTB.

Does (global-set-key (kbd "<mouse-3>") #'kill-region) do what you want?
