Why does my computer mouse suddenly stop working?

Why the computer mouse suddenly cannot be used

There may be three situations: The mouse is broken, There is a problem with the driver, or There is a problem with the computer hardware.

The solutions to the above three situations are as follows:

1. If the mouse is broken. You can try using another mouse. The mouse has been used for too long and may have been damaged. The more you use it, the harder it becomes to use. Just change it to another mouse.

2. Check if it is a driver problem. Right-click "My Computer - Manage - Device Manager" and look to see if there is an exclamation mark in front of "Mouse and other pointing devices". If you find an exclamation mark, it's a driver problem. In the control panel, click on the mouse properties, uninstall the mouse driver, then unplug the mouse and restart the computer. After restarting, plug in the mouse again. The computer will automatically install the mouse driver. After restarting the computer, the mouse returns to normal use.

3. There may be a problem with the computer hardware. Check mainly from the following aspects.

1) Check the plug and keyboard. If the keyboard still works when the mouse doesn't move, check the plug to see if it's loose. Sometimes it falls off due to tension. If the mouse cannot be controlled without moving the keyboard, it means that the computer has crashed or is infected. You can restart your computer and then use the best anti-virus software to kill the virus.

2) Check if there is any problem with the marking pad. Do not use transparent or reflective materials as marking pads. If the mouse doesn't move, you can try using another mouse. If it works, there's something wrong with the original mouse.

3) Clean the mouse. After using the mouse for a long time, it is inevitable that some dust will enter. Open the upper cover of the mouse and clean the dust inside. If the mouse is the one with a rubber ball, it is most likely to become unusable due to the intrusion of dust. You can unscrew the round cover, take out the rubber ball, and clean the dust on the wheel shaft.
