settings - How do I edit Visual Studio's mouse shortcuts?

Question

Visual Studio used to execute the "Naviagte Backward" command whenever I hit the back thumb button on my mouse, but it has recently stopped doing that. How can I edit Visual Studio's mouse shortcut settings to re-enable this feature?

Edit: Starting a bounty, still haven't gotten a concrete answer about this.

Answer 1

From my topic.

Plugin that attaches Navigate back/forward to the mouse buttons: Mouse Navigation The last version (2.2.0) is working fine.

Some clarifying:
Visual Studio (2012) separates the normal navigation from "click to go" navigation.
Normal navigation: mouse click anywhere in code editor, tab change also.

Click to go navigation: Go to definition, search result click. It is controlled by the buttons named: "Browse Back / Next" "Previous/Next Definition, Declaration or Reference". You can find it in the View custom toolbar.

The default VS mouse back/forward buttons are attached to the "Browse Back / Next" buttons, not to the Navigate back/forward.

The VS plugin Mouse Navigation sets the mouse buttons to the Navigate back/forward. The only remaining problem is that because VS doesn't consider "click to go" as normal navigation, when you click to go to a definition and try to go back using the Ctrl+- or mouse back, you will not return to the last position, but to the previous "Normal navigation" position.
My suggestion to the plugin developer is to try to make VS consider "click to go" navigation as normal ones, completely solving this issue.
