I can't click to pick up & place items in inventory on Windows 8 Minecraft. Can this be enabled?

I have a laptop that has Windows 8 which I use for playing Minecraft. However when using the inventory, I have to hold my mouse to drag and pick the items and I don't like that.

I have tried switching mouses but that didn't work, is this possible to fix?


Solution 1:

Go into Options > Controls and turn Touchscreen Mode to OFF.
