Windows 10: Windows 11 - Automatic enable/disable touch UI doesnot work with external mouse and keyboard

Dear madame and sir,since November 2021, i am using Windows 11 as my main OS on my Latitude 7210 2in1. I do enjoy all the little tweaks that Microsoft developed for the tablet experience.In Windows 11, there is no dedicated tablet mode anymore which I do really prefer.

External Mouse and Volume Keys on External Keyboard Stopped Working


I've been using an external mouse and keyboard with my laptop for a while now. A few days ago, the mouse stopped working. It's a wired mouse and the red light comes on when it's plugged in. At the same time, the top row of keys on my wired keyboard stopped working (the volume controls, mail button, home, customizable buttons, etc.). When I plug the mouse in, it appears under Other Devices in the Device Manager, listed twice as a USB Input Device. When I try to update the driver automatically, it says Windows was unable to. The mouse doesn't work in safe mode. I tried a wireless mouse as well and it doesn't work either. My external keyboard shows up under keyboards as an HID Keyboard Device and Windows says the best drivers for my device are already installed. I've tried all three USB ports and the mouse works on another computer. The built-in keyboard and touch pad on my laptop still work fine. What else can I do? Thanks in advance.
