Mouse problem

Hello,

 Suddenly, my usual mouse isn't working anymore...

Did you recently update to Windows 10? ... What kind of mouse do you have? ...

No updates (I blocked them)

I tested with 5 mice from different brands

Hello,

Force shut down 3 times in a row by holding the power button to restart and go to Troubleshoot > Advanced options > System Restore

Select another restore point...

Big thanks, fabulous,

I only did your fix once, and the mouse works again

But it created a big mess on the desk.

I'll wait a bit before marking it as resolved.

I don't know what could have caused this, Windows with updates disabled.

You might want to raise some suspicions with the tutorial for RegRun Reanimator

Then perform basic Windows repairs

By right-clicking on the Start button, use this command with Windows PowerShell (Admin)

CHKDSK /F C:

Respond Y for Yes and then restart Windows.

Next

Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

Then

sfc /scannow

If it’s not just a question of graphics driver, resolution, or scaling, to change the size of the desktop icons, you can (after clicking on the desktop) hold the Ctrl key while scrolling the mouse wheel.

It seems you have a problem with the drivers

Do you have a driver management program installed that can uninstall, update, or install without your knowledge?

Or have you just used one? If so, which one?

Is it going to create a mess?

there is no restoration (following a disk stuffing on another machine)

No: soft: "Driver Management"

I searched all the peripherals, all the drivers are up to date

Thanks for the wheel manipulation, I was able to reduce the icons

The: CHKDSK /F C: will be done on the next restart

You're welcome.

System restore is important; it solves many problems.

By right-clicking on This PC > Properties > System Protection

Or search for systempropertiesprotection.exe

Choose C:\

Configure

You can manage the percentage of space allocated for restoration.

Backups are important,

Unless it sends your machine into overflow

It happened to me, and I had to throw the PC away,

I didn't know CCM at the time

"following a disk stuffing on another machine"

Do we need more disk space? More transfers to other disks?

I use SuperCopier 2.2 beta to copy, and I often use Overwrite if different, (File comparison) to update by overwriting the old obsolete files when there are any.

https://github.com/gligli/SuperCopier2/releases

The: sfc /scannow stopped at 66%.

I now know why I filled up the disk.

It's because I had done several consecutive restorations.

When you don't know, you make mistakes.

To delete the C:\Windows.Old

You need to type Disk Cleanup or cleanmgr.exe in the Windows search box

Choose C:

Clean up old Windows installations

I did that: cleanmgr

On this PC, scannow always stopped at 66%

It's an old corporate PC

Oh wow, that's too much hassle

As long as it works, I'd rather leave it like this

But thanks for the info, I'll keep it safe

Just in case of "rough weather".

When a computer reaches the point of having to reinstall the OS

I throw it away, it's simpler and faster.

And it gives me an extra external drive.
