Hello everyone!
I have a problem with my optical mouse (4D OPTICAL MOUSE M860); it doesn't turn off when I shut down my computer, the red light stays faintly on!
Let me know what I can do!
Thanks

:-)

    It doesn't turn off, remove the cord or the batteries if you want

    In fact, it doesn’t turn off! It just stays on standby. You don’t have much to worry about, with alkaline batteries you have a lifespan of 4 months I believe. But indeed you can remove one battery.

      Hi
      For my mouse, it’s not wireless, so do I need to unplug it? But I know that at the beginning when I bought it with the PC, it would turn off, so that’s strange! Could there be a patch, but I doubt it!
      Thanks for all your responses!!

    Hi....

    You can put a cover over it...
    or put a piece of thick black adhesive tape over the "lens"...

    More seriously, I think the only solution is to "remove a battery"

    Some of them now have a timer and deactivate after x minutes... you have to turn them back on by clicking on one of the "clicks" (right-click or left-click...)

    See you later, gio

    What have you been up to since then? What could have caused this change?

    nothing at all, it did this even less than a month later, I haven't touched anything
    she's always plugged in!
    so I don't know, it must be badly set up, I don't know if sometimes she wasn't installed properly, that could cause this?
    THANK YOU

    What is annoying is the wear and tear of the batteries, but if yours is powered by the PC, that's fine. It also happens that the modems stay on. This is due to power supplies that work a bit in standby.

    Well hello, the consumption of electricity, so if it stays on standby all the time.
