This problem started about 2 months ago. It effects both the keyboard and the mouse. I am using a wireless keyboard.

Logitech MX710 I have used this keyboard successfully for about 3 years. My previous keyboard also Logitech wireless worked for about 5 years before I replaced it. I have reached out to Logitech and they do not have any drivers to use with their unifying receiver. I have checked so many helpful hints online that I have lost track of how many times I have tried each of them again and again.

I have tried the following steps:

reloaded drivers from windows, windows update, and computer based.

Removed keyboard filters

Changed repeat rate from medium to fast

Ran Keyboard troubleshooter

ran DSIM.exe /online /cleanup-image / restorehealth

ran sfc /scannow

restarted computer

Still have a very slow - skipping - laggy keyboard.

    This fixed my problem. Hope it helps some of you.

    Modify the Power Management Settings.

    The keyboard might keep regularly disconnecting on its own due to your computer power settings. You can tweak a few power settings to solve the issue.

    Here are the changes you need to make in the Power Management Settings:

    Open the Device Manager, double-click the Universal Serial Bus controllers option, right-click on the USB Root Hub or Generic Hub and choose Properties.

    Switch to the Power Management tab.

    Uncheck the Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power option.

     USB Root Properties in the Device Manager

    Click OK to save the changes.

    I have the exact same issues.

    I had a Logitech K400 wireless keyboard with mouse track. I then changed to a wireless Microsoft keyboard and still no joy.

    My last straw was to change to a wired keyboard and mouse and still I have these issues.

    This is definitely a windows 11 issue and not the peripherals.

    Does anyone have a fix for this yet as it's driving me crazy to the point I actually hate using my PC and now use my Surface Pro more.

    It got that bad we ended up selling our client a new laptop and then blowing the other one way and redeploying to another staff member

    This worked for me with wireless keyboard and mouse

     USB Root Properties in the Device Manager

    Click OK to save the changes.

    Disable Fast Startup on Windows 11, open Control Panel System > Hardware and Sound > Power Options > Choose what the power button does, click on “Change settings that are currently unavailable,” turn off “Fast Startup,” and click “Save.”
