Windows 10: Glitch issues all over my computer for 6+ weeks

Hi everyone, So back in December I think it was, I noticed my touchpad on my HP pavilion laptop was not perfectly aligned with what I wanted to move my mouse to it might have a delay or drag or glitch - and it becamea nuisance to select text! This never went away. I had a theory that one side of the touchpad looked more pressed in than the other if you really study it at eye level.

SOOO I added a mouse I had handy.

But I was surprised to find that the mouse only made selection and drag issues better ---- But new or worsening issues includeRANDOMly going back to the previous page. Like I'll be filling out a web form on a page like this, and it will just randomly ACT the way it would if I hit the back button. And I'll find myself having wasted time -- re-filling out everything again. Fortunately, some job app sites have been catching it for me by asking "are you sure you want to go back and lose this info?" and I'm like "thank you so much for asking bc hell noooo that was not my intention." ButEven when there is nothing to fill out, it does this. Any web page.
But NOT ALWAYS, just 1/4 of the time. Often enough to drive me crazy.
I swear it has happened in all of these cases: when I click regular left click, definitely a few times as I am scrolling on my mouse's center-scroll, and maybe also when I right-click, and worst - when I am doing nothing. It just did it now, when I clicked the regular mouse left.

--- Chrome. I think "okay maybe its an issue with google chrome" but NO, because get this, its pervasively all over other applications, too.
----OneNote, which I use a lot, will glitch and switch pages on me when I go to type or paste something in. Again, not always, but some of the time.
---And MS Word is fine because it has nowhere "back" to go, but
----FILE EXPLORER is driving me berserk. It does it on par with Chrome. I'll be within one subfolder and it'll just go back, not necessarily to its parent folder, but to the most recent folder I was in. I drag newly-downloaded files to open folders quite often, and this has gotten sooo hard in the past month, because it's an art form to be able to get it in the right place and quickly enough.
And on Word, especially this week, I can't ever just *select* a sentence easily. It takes 3 attempts, minimum. Selects nearby words and dropping it wherever it sees fit if I linger there a moment too long. I am losing so much time.

Does anyone know what this is?
My computer is relatively new, like less than 2 years!

I have run mouse hardware installs and uninstalls and troubleshooting and updates and scans galore. Especially since issues started, I get my updates done whenever it tells me to -- and I restart on the reg. I use OneDrive for a lottt of my file storage, but my issue right now is less about speed or PC processing anyways…. so Idk what the issue could be.

I am just now 2/5/20 disabling Sticky Keys, Toggle Keys, and Filter Keys, to see if anything is affected.

Since these issues can't be predicted, but do happen every 4-10 minutes, I am nervous to take this in to a computer specialist and have them not be able to see what I mean. But I can always rely on the touchpad to be glitchy enough to convince them alone.

Incase this matters, I had a lot of Internet/network connectivity issues this month, whereas my roommates weirdly did not. It seems to be well connected this week, not to jinx it, but last week, it dropped every 3-5 minutes, then every hour, then every 2 minutes. How have I not pulled all of my hair out? I do not know.

Please help.

That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.

 

Mouse glitching

Hi thanks for replying.

The issues started like 3 to 4 weeks ago, no changes to my computer were made before this started happening, im using windows 10 version 1703.

So far, i have not taken any troubleshooting steps.

I have also noticed that, the mouse glitches when the computer have been on and working for at least more than an hour, anything else, the same, glitches when opening something or loading a web page.

Thanks for helping, i'll be waiting for new response.

 

Chrome glitch

Hello Ralph,

Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

As per the issue description on one of the three users Chrome is not working.
I would appreciate if you can provide us the following information to help us understand the issue better.

• The account on which you are facing issue with Chrome, does it have the administrator permission?
• Have you check with other browser? Was the result same?
• Is the issue specific to only one application or facing issue with other application too?

First, I would suggest you to use Internet Explorer and see if it brings any difference.
Here are the steps through which you can use Internet Explorer.

• 
  Press the Windows key.
  
• 
  Type Internet Explorer in the search box.
  
• 
  Right click on Internet Explorer
  (Desktop app).
  
• 
  Select Pint to task bar.
  
• 
  Try to use Internet Explorer from there and see if it brings any difference.
  

If you still want to use Chrome then I would suggest you to open the application Chrome in administrator mode and see if it brings any difference. Here are the steps through which you can open Chrome in Administrator mode.

• Press the Windows key or click on Start icon.
• Type Google Chrome.
• Right click on Google Chrome and select the option to Run As Administrator.
• If everything works fine by running chrome in administrator mode then you may pin it to the task bar.

Hope this would help. If issue still persists post back with current status of your computer and result of the proposed suggestion, we will be happy to assist you.

Regards,
