Microsoft store Roblox mouse glitch

Hi

Welcome to Microsoft community.

The mouse lag issue you're experiencing with Roblox on your Windows gaming laptop can be caused by various factors. Here are some steps to help you troubleshoot and potentially resolve the problem:

1. Update Graphics Drivers:
   
   • Outdated or incompatible graphics drivers can lead to performance issues. Visit the website of your laptop's GPU manufacturer (e.g., NVIDIA, AMD, Intel) and download the latest drivers. Install them and restart your laptop.
     
2. Update Roblox:
   
   • Ensure you have the latest version of Roblox installed from the Microsoft Store. Sometimes, updating the game can resolve performance issues.
     
3. Adjust Roblox Settings:
   
   • Within the Roblox game, adjust the graphics settings to lower levels. Lowering settings like graphics quality, texture quality, and rendering distance can improve performance.
     
4. Check Mouse Settings:
   
   • Ensure your mouse settings are configured correctly in Windows. Go to "Settings" > "Devices" > "Mouse" and check the mouse sensitivity and other settings.
     
5. Check for Background Processes:
   
   • Make sure there are no background processes or applications consuming too much CPU or memory while playing Roblox. Use Task Manager (Ctrl + Shift + Esc) to monitor and close unnecessary processes.
     
6. Disable V-Sync:
   
   • In some cases, disabling V-Sync (vertical sync) within the Roblox settings can improve mouse responsiveness. Experiment with turning V-Sync on and off to see if it makes a difference.
     
7. Check for System Resource Issues:
   
   • Ensure your laptop is not overheating, as overheating can lead to performance problems. Clean the laptop's cooling system and make sure it's running efficiently.
     
8. Try a Different Mouse:
   
   • Test the game with a different external mouse to rule out any hardware-related issues with your current mouse.
     
9. Check for Other Software Conflicts:
   
   • Some third-party software or utilities running in the background can interfere with game performance. Try closing background applications one by one to identify any conflicts.
     
10. Reinstall Roblox:
    
    • If the issue persists, you may want to uninstall Roblox from the Microsoft Store and then reinstall it. This can sometimes resolve software-related problems.
      

Remember to test your mouse with other applications to ensure that the issue is specific to Roblox and not a general problem with your mouse or system. Additionally, keep your operating system and all drivers up to date to ensure optimal compatibility with games and software.

Please feel free to let me know if you have any further updates. Thanks.

Taskbar above windowed games - Windows 10

Hello,

I realize your concern, please an answer few query to assist you further.

1. Is this issue specific to a particular game or for all games?

For your information, usually the taskbar appears when you move the cursor. If it is appearing continuously, then it might be conflict with the software. Restarting the Computer might fix the issue.

I suggest you to double mouse click on the game window when the Taskbar appears and check if it works.

Also, suggest you to select the Lock the taskbar option from the taskbar from the below steps:

1. Right click on taskbar.
2. From the list of option, click on Lock the taskbar option.
3. Restart the computer.

Do let us know the update.

Thank you.

 

I can’t get on keyboard+mouse mode on roblox.

Dear Chandler,I understand that options are not displayed in Roblox;

In that case I recommend you try to Reset Roblox;

Press Windows key + i and go to Applications;

Click Apps & Features;

Locate Roblox in the list and click on the three dots on the right to access Advanced Options;

Scroll down the page and click on Reset;

Now open Roblox;

Start some game;

Click on the Roblox icon (Top left corner of the screen);

Click on Settings;

In Camera Mode, set to Classic;

In Motion Mode, change to Keyboard + Mouse;

Check if it is now possible to use keyboard and mouse in Roblox;

Hope this helps, see you soon!
