Mouse Stutter in Windows 11

I have been using this Windows desktop fine since this past December (2023). And starting last week, the mouse I had started lagging. So I tried a different mouse and that also started lagging on the computer.

I have tried the following:

  • Driver updates
  • Windows 11 reinstall (with data save)
  • Uninstalling mouse driver
  • Updating Windows

None of those worked. Any ideas would very much help!

EDIT: Plug a wired mouse into your computer

Why has Microsoft not fixed this yet? So many people have this issue. It's not a hardware issue, too many people have it. Fix it!

Yes, I have it. For me, If I plug my mouse in to the USB, that is not use wireless, I'm fine.

    It's been a long time that I follow this thread..

    There is only one 100% correlation that I noticed over time: there is a pending windows update each time I encounter stuttering.

    So, to me, this is a 100% Microsoft issue.

    Apple or all other OS users will surely confirm this.

    I see, if that's the case. Let's try to create a new user profile with admin privileges and check if the same issue will appear. Click the link below for the steps.

    If the issue does not appear on the new user profile, then there's something wrong with your main user profile.

    Thank you,

    This actually worked for me. Fml, when windows is so unoptimised it can't handle a simple slide up and down
