The problem is that my mouse stuck and not go as normal when flickering in games and also in desktop I noticed that the blockage of the cursor is not happening in the other pc with the same mouse and mouse pad also I tried using a mouse with a dongle and still the same problem on my pc.

and when one time I tried to restart my pc in the restart screen the blockage didn't work it worked fine without a problem.

I stopped all the services, uninstalled mouse drivers changed mouse and still no sign of getting better.

I created a new account to see if there still the problem and I found nothing its normal on the same pc another user

    Hi @Youness Rechchach

    Since the mouse works normally on the restart screen and in a newly created Windows account, this is most likely caused by a user-specific setting, startup application, or corrupted profile rather than the mouse hardware or driver.

    In the affected account, please try:

    1. Open Task Manager > Startup apps, disable all non-Microsoft items, then restart.
    2. Temporarily uninstall or disable mouse, gaming, overlay, and customization software such as Logitech/Razer utilities, Xbox Game Bar, Discord overlay, MSI Afterburner, or screen-recording tools.
    3. Go to Settings > Bluetooth & devices > Mouse > Additional mouse settings > Pointer Options, disable Enhance pointer precision, and test again.
    4. If the issue remains, back up your personal files and move to the new Windows account where the mouse works correctly. This may be faster and more reliable than continuing to repair the damaged user profile.

    There is no need to replace the mouse or reinstall its driver again, since the same hardware works correctly under another account.

    Hope this helps. Have a nice day
