Laptop mouse does not work: This may be the reason

If you use an external mouse for your laptop, it may not be recognized. This happens with both wired models and Bluetooth mice. If the device is functional and properly connected and still doesn't work, installing the device driver often helps.

Making laptop mouse work

Laptops use a touchpad for control. However, you can attach an external mouse and bypass the touchpad. This is convenient if you prefer to work with a mouse or even necessary if the touchpad is broken. If the mouse is not recognized or shows other malfunctions, several causes are possible. First, it is helpful to test the mouse on another device first. This way you can rule out that the mouse is broken.

How to find the cause of a defective mouse

  1. Other USB port: Possibly the USB port on your laptop is defective or it is the wrong version. Plug the cable or tracker into a different USB port.
  2. Restart device: Turn your laptop off and on again, then test the mouse again.
  3. Update: Missing updates can also prevent external devices from working properly. Perform all necessary updates, especially system updates.
  4. Install device drivers: Im Netz finden Sie den Treiber für Ihre Maus. Die Installation des Treibers hilft oft, wenn Ihr Laptop die Maus nicht erkennt.
