Windows 10: Pointer (arrow) freezing for long periods randomly

It comes and goes. It can go for days fine and then happen a few times in a row.

It just freezes for a long time, maybe nearly one minute, I dont use a mouse, just touchpad, and I start touching the keyboard and eventually will work again but it's very annoying and unpredictable.

I looked for solutions and found the classic reinstall driver etc, not working.

Windows 10 freezes randomly

I had already tried turning off fast startup, to no avail.
Will look at the list you provided, thanks. Hard to do when computer freezes on the Windows loading screen though. *Biggrin

I had tried that as well... no result.

 

Mouse pointer freezes randomly

I am having an issue with the mouse pointer freezing up randomly after the upgrade to Windows 10. 4 different mice. Including a Microsoft branded mouse. I have seen others with this same problem on the boards, but none of the suggestions worked. So I went
to chat. The chat reps could not figure it out. Now get this....

They told me that Microsoft Mice, do not work properly with Windows 10.

Yes, they actually told me this. They are insistent that all 4 of my mice are bad when they all work fine in my Windows 7 machine and they worked fine on this machine before I upgraded it to Windows 10 a few weeks ago from Windows 8.1

Does anyone have an actual clue on what is going on?
