Windows 10: Mouse cannot straight line anymore (picture xplains)

Hello,
My mouse is rather fokked, but in quite a subtle way; you see, since yesterday-ish, myself/my computer just can not figure out how to mouse. I like to play games, but this oh-so-subtle fokkery has got me on the ropes in terms of not losing my mind midprocess. Attached is a picture of 6 lines drawn from right to left in as straight a fashion as I could manage; from top to bottom: top is 500x:500y dpi, 1700x1700, 2700x2700, 3300x3300 dpi plus a bonus at 3300x3300, and an extra on a different surface at my typical navigation settings of 2700x2700. My mouse is a Cyber Snipa Silencer, ( Cyber Snipa - Silencer Gaming Mouse )

Now friends, my question is... Why has this fokkery occurred? I haven't changed my mouse-surface equipment for years. Why now? No updates have been installed to my knowledge. restarted my computer, still fokkery.

Couldnt find a forum post for this, but feel free to link me things.

Cheers,
Some Asshole

P.S. here is another picture of 6 lines, same parameters, but drawn from top to bottom, left (500x500) to right (2 sets 3300x3300 then 2700x2700 different surface.)

Picture Passwords

Hi Candiria,



Thank you for your interest in Windows 10.
I understand your concern and will assist you to resolve this issue

Signing in with a picture password:

With a picture password, you can sign in to your PC with your favorite photo instead of a hard-to-remember password. You choose the picture, which gestures—circles, straight lines, or taps—you use, and where on the picture you trace them. You can draw a picture
password directly on a touchscreen with your finger, or you can use a mouse to draw your shapes. Everyone who has a Microsoft account on your PC can set up their own picture password.


I would like to inform you that, you cannot set both picture password and typed password at the same time to login to your system.

Please feel free to contact us, if you face any issues with Windows.



Thank you.

 

Paint in Win 10 user manual?

You are correct that most features are the same for all current versions of MS Paint.

Some I still have to learn by trial and error. Example: Draw straight lines from points A, B, C, D, not in a straight line.

Old way. select line and width. place cursor on point A, hold down left mouse button and draw lint to point B. let up on left mouse button. without moving mouse, depress left button again and draw from point B to C, etc..

Win 10 version: select line and width. place cursor on point A and push left mouse button. draw line to point B. let up on left button, then push left button. try to draw a line to point B and it only drags the first line to point B.

it now takes extra steps to draw another line from B to C. Trial and error to figure out what steps.

 

You could try this to see if you have any options.
Click on Settings (above power button)
In box at top (type a setting) type mouse, this should offer you various options
Further settings can be had by clicking on "additional mouse options" as seen in following attachment.

 

You might want to see if your original mouse driver is still on your system. In the updates recently MS installed new mouse drivers.

If it's the original gaming driver check to see if there are updates for Win 10 compatibility.

Also try turning POINTER TRAILS to ON.

Otherwise that might be a device hardware issue.

 

Hello again,

Thank you for your input, and after many minutes of messing about with system settings, reinstalling drivers & testing, including using the mouse on another computer, I have concluded that the best solution would be to get a new mouse, since this one has a few years, and several falls under it's belt. I'm thinking the laser has just had it with my tomfoolery. Assume that this is the solution if I don't post again. Should be noted that lowering the mouse speed in Windows Settings, and increasing the dpi in the silencer configuration program seemed to yield the most dramatic improvement to the smoothness with which I could navigate.

Thanks again,
Some Asshole
