Elder Scroll: Daggerfall
I can't attack anything in this game, everything else works fine, but "swing weapon" doesn't work at all. Any fix for this problem?

To swing you keep the (right, IIRC) mouse button pressed and move it. Sideways attacks are easiest to perform and well balanced. Up-down attacks (chop) are most powerful but have a lower hit chance. Down-up (thrust) have highest hit chance but are weakest. In practice both are difficult to do with the mouse, left-right-left or oblique is easiest.

Well that was new to me. Thanks for help, mate. Though it is hard to aim enemies, needs some work in that .

You don't have to aim a lot, any enemy more or less in sight within range can be hit. If you're not hitting every time you swing that's normal depending on your attack rating and the enemy's defense.
There are also some enemies immune to normal weapons. For example in the first dungeon there's an imp (small flying demon that casts magic at you) that can be hit only with steel or better metal.

Remember that you can set up the game to use the modern-day WASD keyboard controls, and enable proper mouselook in the settings:

Yes, mouse freelook is an absolute must.

Done already: WASD and mouse look. Any ideas where to find any villages/towns, if there is any?

Read all the text about quests that has appeared so far. Right-click on the map icon to initiate fast travel and choose any town.

I was about to delete my last post, but thanks for a tip, I found it today on my own accidentally after walking north-east and east for days.
