Hello,
For the past week, I have been unable to correctly select text with my manual mouse: either the selection doesn't happen, or it's partial, or it disappears if I try to copy and paste. It's also impossible to move the text. And sometimes, I can't even change the color of the text... What should I do? Thank you for your help.

    I don't have another mouse available; should I buy another one?

      "And sometimes, it's impossible to change the text color." Which software are you talking about for changing the text?

      I’m talking about text created in Word.
      What’s strange is that the problems arise when writing new texts. I tried to see how it works with saved texts and there everything works correctly: I can select, move text, change the color of the characters...

      So it probably doesn't come from your mouse. I thought it happened with any type of text, but if your problem only arises in Word, it must be something else.
      About 2 months ago, I couldn't type the circumflex accent in Word anymore; it was due to spyware, so try installing CCleaner and running a scan, then ADWCleaner and running a scan as well.

      I don't know your level of computer skills, but if you install a program from 01net for example or elsewhere, make sure to read carefully before accepting, as it often offers the installation of McAfee antivirus or setting Yahoo or Bing as default. You just need to uncheck those options beforehand.
