    So, for some context, ever since I unfortunately dropped my keyboard and broke an entire key more specifically, the D key, my mouse became unusable when this annoying pop-up would appear. I thought that this could've been caused by a sticky key from my keyboard, so I eliminated the keyboard from my linked devices multiple times, and even tried using only the pre-built one from my laptop, but nothing changed. The pop-up still appeared, however it was much easier to avoid it using the touch-pad. So, what should I do? For context, that's what it looks like when it keeps appearing.

    :)
