Hi Larry,

In some instances, your mouse may keep on freezing if there are some pending updates on your Windows 10 PC. We suggest you install available Windows updates and check if that helps you. If the issue still persists, you may run
Hardware Troubleshooter Drivers.

Update us with the outcome.
