    Mouse settings in registry - MouseTrails "1"


    Hello,
    in registry Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Mouse is key MouseTrails which has default value "0"

    For unknown reason my MouseTrails is set to "1". Anyone know what value "1" means? Mouse trails is enabled from "2" to "7".

    So my mouse trails is disabled.

    BTW I have installed Logitech Setpoint, which probably causes this. But even in Setpoint, mouse trails is disabled.

    Thanks.

    I can't find anything where the value is 1; I would change it to 0 if you don't want the mouse trails.
    But keep in mind: If at 1 nothing bad seems to happen, and everything seems okay with the mouse, then you can keep it at 1.
    Dunno what 1 is.


    Edit: I did find this though (unless this is your post as well)

    If that's not you who posted that, then it seems that Logitech's software sets it at 1 for some reason.
    Redacted. I'm sure that was your post; similar username.

    You could post in the tutorial thread to ask if Brink knows what 1 means.


    All the best,
