Unplugging a peripheral component such as a “mouse” from a personal computer renders all of the software programs that require that component unusable on that computer. On Fred’s personal computer, a software program that requires a mouse has become unusable. So it must be that the mouse for Fred’s computer became unplugged.
The argument is most vulnerable to which one of the following criticisms?
(A) It contains a shift in the meaning of “unusable” from “permanently unusable” to “temporarily unusable.”
(B) It treats an event that can cause a certain result as though that event is necessary to bring about that result.
(C) It introduces information unrelated to its conclusion as evidence in support of that conclusion.
(D) It attempts to support its conclusion by citing a generalization that is too broad.
(E) It overlooks the possibility that some programs do not require a peripheral component such as a mouse.

Answer seems to be B
So the argument can easily be changed into
If X then Y and now coclusion mentions that If Y then X and that's why option B is correct
This is wrong causation relation
