Mouse cursor not selecting what I'm left clicking on.

So my issue started after updating to Big Sur and my cursor moves left to right, etc but, I left click on a button or link I have selected and nothing happens.

This happens when I use the Magic Mouse by apple or a Microsoft wired mouse attached to the back of my iMac.

Please restart in Safe Mode and then restart normally and retest.
