    Mouse suddenly behaving erratically


    So, from about two months back, my mouse began behaving erratically, and i'm thinking it might be a Windows problem, going from what i've seen in other threads here.For reference:-The mouse will double-click and sometimes even triple-click frequently, and selecting text through clicking and dragging becomes almost impossible, as the mouse seems to drop the selection on its own accord midway through 6 out of 7 times, at least.-The problem is not on the mouse - i bought it only two months ago.-The problem is not on the driver - the driver is updated and i even uninstalled and reinstalled it, to

  2. Mouse behaves erratically after update

    After the last update my mouse behaves erratically. It
    also generates error sound when I am playing 3D games. I did a clean reinstall of video card driver, plugged the mouse in another USB port and reinstalled mouse drivers. I use Basic Logitech USB
    mouse and Nvidia Geforce 1070 video card driver

  3. Erratic, jerky mouse behaviour

    I'm using a Microsoft Windows wireless mouse with a Surface Pro.

    It's behaved perfectly until recently, when it suddenly has become erratic and jerky so I have difficulty in selecting icons, text, etc.

    I have cleaned my mouse thoroughly, replaced the batteries, powered it and my surface pro off and on but this doesn't rectify the problem.

    Mouse/Windows Explorer Behaving Erratically

    I am about to go crazy with mouse issues. The problems are single clicks randomly trigger double clicks which sometimes causes windows explorer to momentarily freeze for a few seconds until it rights itself. Also occasionally a mouse click and the release will drag content as though the mouse is depressed. I have tried 3 different mice, 2 wireless 1 not (my main/favorite). I have uninstalled drivers, reinstalled drivers, I have run virus and malware scans with 3 different programs, Malwarebytes, Bitdefender and Spybot Search and Destroy. I have adjusted mouse click sensitivity settings. As I am typing this my keyboard for the first time momentarily became unresponsive!!! I am close to slinging a bat into the whole system! This is crazy, please help!!!!

    How do I uninstall a Microsoft Windows "wrap-up" update? I think the problem may have stated after I installed that.

    I know there is a newer version of Windows 10 but I have expensive hardware that has released info saying do not go past my current version because there have been problems reported by people who do.
