My Mouse Stops Working After Logging In—What Can I Do?
Asked by

I recently upgraded to a new version of Windows, and I'm facing a frustrating issue where my mouse buttons stop responding about 10 seconds after logging in. I can still move the cursor and use the scroll wheel, but that's it! This forces me to rely on my keyboard to navigate my computer. What should I try to fix this?

I found out that my mouse problem happens when I open specific apps like WhatsApp or Medal. Maybe that’s related to your issue too? It might be a software conflict.

It sounds like you're having a pretty typical issue. First, have you tried unplugging the mouse and plugging it back in? Also, a quick restart can sometimes help. If it's wireless, check if there's any Bluetooth trouble. The more details you share, the better we can help you out!

You could try just getting a new USB mouse. They're pretty cheap and easy to find. If that solves the issue, great! Otherwise, you might need to dig a bit deeper.

This could be a driver issue. Try plugging the mouse into a different USB port and see if that helps. You can also check Device Manager to reinstall your mouse drivers.
