  3. Windows 10 upgrade issues my mouse will select multiple lines on docs when left clicking in word

    Hi,

    I realize the inconvenience you are facing. Let me help you in resolving the issue.

    Does the issue persists only with Word?

    There is a possibility that this issue might have occurred due to some incorrect settings in Word or corrupt system files or outdated mouse drivers.

    I would suggest you to try the following methods and check if it helps.

    Method 1: Try running System Maintenance Troubleshooter to get the problem automatically detected and fixed. Please follow the steps given below.

    Run inbuilt system maintenance troubleshooter and check if it works.
    Please follow the steps given below.


    • Type Troubleshooting in search bar and click
      Troubleshooting.

    • Now click on view all option.

    • Click on System maintenance and follow the prompts to run the troubleshooter.
    Note: System maintenance troubleshooter looks for unused files and shortcuts that you clean up or remove so that your computer can run faster.

    If the issue persists, follow method 2

    Method 2: I suggest you to install all the Windows updates and check. If the issue still persists then I suggest you to try updating your drivers manually from the Device Manager
    and check I that helps. Update your Graphics card drivers, Mouse and keyboard drivers etc.

    Keep us posted on Windows related queries and we will be happy to assist you further.

    Windows 10 upgrade issues my mouse will select multiple lines on docs when left clicking in word

    Since upgrading I am having issues with word, my mouse will select multiple lines on docs when left clicking, also when highlighting a word or trying to insert the cursor to edit or add a word the whole document will be highlighted and cannot be undone.
