  2. mouse keeps freezing

    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.

    PC freezes while using mouse

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    I understand that the mouse freezes when you try to use it on the PC. For further clarity on the issue, please respond to the questions below.



    1. Are you aware of any changes made to the PC?
    2. Which build version of Windows 10 are you using currently?
    3. How is the mouse connected to the PC?
    4. What is the make and model of the PC?


    I would suggest you to follow the steps mentioned below and see if that helps.



    Method 1:



    Perform a Clean Boot on the PC and see if the mouse still freezes. Refer the article

    How to perform a clean boot in Windows




    Performing a clean boot will start the computer with minimal set of drivers and programs, to determine whether a background program is causing the issue. Some of the Startup programs will not load after performing a clean boot on
    the computer. However, that functionality will return when you reset the computer to start normally after finishing the troubleshooting.



    If the mouse does not freezes after performing Clean Boot, then please refer the section
    How to determine what is causing the problem after you do a clean boot
    to identify the root cause of the issue.



    Note:
    Please refer the section Reset the computer to start normally after clean boot troubleshooting
    to boot the computer in to normal mode after troubleshooting.




    Method 2:



    Try updating the Display Drivers and see if that helps. Refer the article

    Update drivers in Windows 10




    If the issue persists, please get back to us with the details of the troubleshooting steps to assist you further.
