    Home key getting pressed randomly and mouse getting scrolled automatically


    i have been having an issue where my home key has been being pressed randomly and my mouse has been infinitely scrolling up. These issue both started at the same time about 6 months ago. Ive updated drivers and firmware on both of these, as well as opened them up and cleaned the affected parts. I know its not a keylogger or some sort of malware as it is only the home key and only scrolling up, it happens are random times, and just stops on its own. I have not tried with another set of peripherals because i dont own any others. The scrolling happens more ofter than the home key issue (that one hasnt happened in months, but it just started back up again, so thats why im making this) The can happen independently, so i dont think they are connected. Any suggestions?

    Zippy! Automatic Button Pressing program.

    Wouldn't it have been more expedient to ditch the GUI and make Zippy! a hot key activated app?
    (Similar to how TPUCapture works)
    For instance ... Zippy! is running in the background. The user presses a key combo (say Alt-Z) to tell Zippy! to repeat the next key/mouse click it sees until the hot key combo is pressed again?
    So Alt+Z and then left mouse click tells Zippy! to repeat the left mouse click until Alt+Z is pressed again.
    That would completely eliminate the need for profiles.

    Just a suggestion for version 2.0 *Wink Home key getting pressed randomly and mouse getting scrolled automatically ;)
    As always, good work Ford. Definitely useful with Minecraft. *Toast :toast:

    Mouse Scroll Jumps

    Hello Nate,

    It is possible that the Vertical Scrolling is set to a higher numeric value. To assist you with your concern I would suggest checking the Vertical Scrolling to isolate the issue. Just follow these steps to isolate the issue.

    • Press the Windows key and go to Settings.
    • Click Devices and go to Mouse.
    • Click on Additional mouse options.
    • Click on the Wheel tab.
    • Put a bullet on Roll the wheel one notch to scroll and change the numeric value to 2 or 3 (Depending on your preference.)
    • Click Apply, then OK.

    Check if this will resolve the issue.

    Let us know how it goes.

    Regards.

  4. Home key getting pressed randomly and mouse getting scrolled automatically

    Mouse gets stuck and freezes after pressing any key on the keyboard

    Hi Eminem,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

    I would suggest you to follow these methods and check.


    Run Hardware Troubleshooter

    Follow these steps to run the troubleshooter.

    • Press the ‘Windows + W’ key on the keyboard.
    • Type troubleshooter in the search box and then press enter.
    • Click hardware and sound and run the hardware and device troubleshooter.
    I also recommend you to reinstall the drivers in Compatibility mode and check if it works.


    • Right-click on the driver setup file and click on ‘properties’.

    • Click on the ‘compatibility’ tab and check the box "Run this program in compatibility mode for” and select Windows 8.1 operating system from the drop down.

    • Click on ‘Apply’ and click ‘OK’ and run the file to install it.
    I suggest you to disable the mouse driver and then enable it again.

    1) Press Windows + X and select
    device manager.


    2) Click on Mice and other pointing devices.

    3) Right click on driver and choose Disable.

    4) Next restart and enable it again.

    Hope it helps. Please reply to us with the status of the issue.

    Thanks.
