Windows 10: direct input can it make my mouse lose left click and hold?

Hi.I have a question about direct input for controls. I had to play with some dlls beacuse i wanted to change controls in older gameJuiced but i coudnt. Did some searching and found that direct input needs some dlls to make it work with older games. Briliant me didnt do backup od original dlls and now every time i click and hold left mouse it holds for a few seconds and then it looses input and starts again so any drags or similar acrion are no logner possible. Even some single click are counted as double. Do I need to reinstall my windows or is there a way to fix this issue in other ways? M

How do I change scroll direction of a mouse NOT listed under Mice?

Thanks; yes, those are great directions and did work to change the direction of the wired mouse that came with the computer. But the mouse I'm using doesn't show up as a mouse in the hardware list, so I can't follow the rest of those steps. I need the mouse to appear on the list of mice in order to complete this sequence.

 

Keyboard and mouse inputs cancel if holding and multiple inputs cannot be used at the same time

I updated Windows 11 yesterday, and now my mouse and keyboard do not work properly. I first noticed the issue while playing Minecraft, but I can not press multiple keyboard keys at once, such as pressing ctrl and w to sprint in-game, if I try to do so, the first input pressed is canceled and I have to press it again to continue moving. Key combinations will work for maybe a second or less before the first input is cancelled. Mouse inputs also interrupt keyboard inputs. I can only capitalize letters if I press the key combination very quickly. Held mouse inputs also cancel after a few seconds, such as dragging and dropping an icon or trying to highlight text. In device manager it says my keyboard is not plugged in even though it is my integrated laptop keyboard. I have tried reinstalling and updating drivers, but nothing works. The only thing left I can think to do is reinstall Windows. Does anyone have any other suggestions? Thank you

 

Is there a way to rapidly invert scrolling via my mouse's left button without holding it down?

Hi, and thanks for reaching out. My name is Saeid. I'll be happy to help you out today.

Unfortunately, the Microsoft Wireless Mobile Mouse 4000 does not have an option to rapidly invert scrolling without holding down the left-sided button. However, you can use an alternate solution such as assigning a macro to a button on the mouse. Here's how you can create the macro:

Download and install a third-party software like "Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center" or "AutoHotkey."

Create a new macro using the software, which will invert the scrolling direction when you press the left-sided button on your mouse.

Assign the macro to the left-sided button on your mouse.

Save and activate the macro.

This way, you can rapidly invert the scrolling direction by pressing the left-sided button on your mouse and revert back to the previous direction by pressing it again.
