Windows 10: Mouse Keys speed in Win 11

Hi Guys,Due to a severe handicap,my brother can only use the Keyboard mouse keys to handle the mouse movement.As he’s playing chess all day long,this kind of movement needs to be quite fast ..this wasn’t a problem in Win2000,but starting with XP and going on with Win7 and even Win10,this was really slow and MarkC script applying a registry file solved the problem - but this is not working for any Windows x64.As a note,only one hand can be used at a time,so we exclude the option to press CTRL at the same time.How can we solve this? Off course,all settings are set to max speed.Is there any reg

:)

 

Wandering mouse

Hi,

As an initial troubleshooting step, I suggest you to adjust the mouse speed and check if that helps to resolve the issue.

• Type mouse on the search bar and select Mouse and touchpad settings.
• Select Additional Mouse Settings.
• Select Pointer Options and adjust the mouse speed under Motion.

If the issue still persists, I suggest you to run the Hardware and Devices troubleshooter.

1. Type troubleshooting in the search bar.

2. Select Troubleshooting.

3. Select View all on the top left corner.

4. Click on Hardware and Devices.

5. Follow the on-screen instructions to run the troubleshooter.

6. Check if issue persists.

Hope the information helps. Let us know if you need further assistance. We will be happy to help.

Thank you.

Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center macros not working in Windows 11

I just bought a Windows 11 PC to replace my old Windows 10 PC. I was in the process of installing all of my apps and configuring them on Windows 11 (just as I had in Win 10). So far, everything has worked (that I tried) as before in Win 10. However, when I ran a macro with the button on my "Microsoft Wireless Mouse 5000" within Win 11 (applied to one of my other applications), it didn't execute as expected. It let me create the macro as usual, but it never ran when I clicked the mouse button.

I tried doing the same thing back on my old Win 10 machine (with the same Mouse and software) and it worked flawlessly. The version of Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center that I used for both Win 10 and Win 11 was 14.41 (or more specifically, v14.41.137.0). I googled to see if there was a separate application for Win 11, but I didn't see one.

Here are the steps that I took to create the macro in Win 11:

1. I first opened the application that I wanted to apply the macro to.
   
2. Then I opened Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center and went to the mouse section.
   
3. I clicked on "app-specific settings" selection.
   
4. I clicked the "Add New" button.
   
5. I selected the app in the list and clicked on it.
   
6. I clicked on the button that I wanted to apply it to (Left side button).
   
7. In the list of options to apply to the button, I selected "macro."
   
8. I clicked the "Create a new Macro" button.
   
9. I clicked into the "editor" box and typed in the key strokes that I wanted it to execute.
   
10. I clicked the back arrow button until I got back to the main screen.
    
11. I pressed the mouse button within the app's window, but it never ran (even with Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center window still being opened).
    

As I mentioned, these same steps worked fine in Win 10. I even tried to use a pre-made selection (such as "Magnify"), but even that didn't work. At this point, it seems like the "app-specific settings" don't work at all within Win 11. Only the "basic settings" appear to be working (at least for the mouse). This functionality was the main reason that I bought a Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard!!

Any assistance with this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for any fix!!
