I also have a Ryzen based system and have similar but different symptoms, which are identical in the latest stable version and the weekly build - details below.

Previous laptop any new version, my left mouse button rotated the viewpoint, the right button moved the view in the window up/down/left/right.

New laptop, shift+right mouse button rotates the view, ctrl+right moves it in the window and shift+ctrl+right zooms. Can't get any reaction from the left mouse button.
Navigation cube seems to operate as normal. I also tried the OpenGL change suggested to no avail.

About reports this as a Win10 OS but it is Win11

All the best
Michael

completely unrelated, you probably just changed your Mouse navigation style, check the linked wiki page and switch back to your preferred model.

Yep, changing it to Gesture did the trick. This was my first install on the new laptop and I hadn't changed anything so I assume FreeCAD had CAD set as default and I'd changed that on my last laptop several years ago when I first installed it.

Thanks for the help
