Windows 10: Sticky Mouse syndrome

My mouse occasionally freezes and does not respond to motion nor button clicks. The freeze only last for a few seconds.


I have a Logitech bluetooth mouse, M557.


This is nothing new. It has been going on "forever" and, since it only lasts a few seconds, I have just been putting up with it.


Does anyone else experience this? More important, is there anything I can do about it? I am willing to buy a new mouse if I must.


P.S. I thought I posted this yesterday but cannot find it!

Hi,

  What is the make and model of the Sticky mouse?
  

I suggest you to check with your manufacturer web site and download the driver latest drivers and install.

If you couldn’t find the latest driver, I suggest you to install the old driver in compatibility mode and check if it helps.

Follow the steps below on how to install driver in compatibility mode:

1. Download the driver from the manufacturer’s website and save it on your local disk.

2. Right click on the setup file of the driver and select “Properties”.

3. Select “Compatibility” Tab.

4. Place a check mark next to “Run this program in Compatibility mode” and select operating system from the drop down list.

5. Let the driver install and then check the functionality.

Hope this helps. If the issue remains unresolved, please get back to us and we would be happy to help.
