Cursor jumps ahead

Newmaven said:

Frequently, my cursor jumps ahead, often a half-screen or full-screen worth. I have recently made several changes to my system" updated Win 10 from Ver 1903 to 2004 and replaced my Logitech Performance MX wireless mouse with a Logitech MX Master, which uses new software. Also, this happens most often on Facebook, which itself has changed its software.

Any suggestions?

Try it with a basic wired mouse like the Logitech M100 (no software required, about $10), see if the problem still occurs. If the plain old wired mouse works properly, that will eliminate about 50% of the possible causes.

No problem with wired mouse..

Well since your new mouse is probably... new, I would think you have a software issue. Probably the mouse software.
I would uninstall the wireless mouse software and re-install it, fresh.

If you still have the problem then I would look to the mouse itself, or the... dongle?


I was just reading about the Logitech MX Master 3? It says it has a hyper fast scroll wheel. If you do have version 3 of that mouse, maybe turn down the scroll wheel speed/sensitivity w/e, a bit.


Assuming this is the mouse you got... I saw this also...






And this...
