Left Mouse Click Sometimes Stops Working When I Boot on HP Pavilion

Hello,
I am a Debian user. For learning how to use Linux Konsole  more properly I installed xfce4 on boot. However since the second tşme I booted my computer last weekend, my left click spontaneously stopped working on some occasions. In the login screen I have no issues. But, the moment the desktop environment loads my left click sometimes stops working. I tried mouse resetting bashes in the beginning and they didn't work. I then concluded that my wireless mouse and keyboard might've been causing the error. Because my keyboard has an additional mouse that connects through the same USB stick with the keyboard. I used xinput list and listed the inputs. I disabled that input in both ~/.xsessionrc and ~/.xprofile. But, my mouse left click still doesn't work sometimes after boot. I think these outputs might come in handy:
