How To Easily Fix Mouse Lag On Windows 10?
Computers can suffer slow response or 'lag', a term commonly used in online gaming. In general, lag is the time difference between initiating a task and the action or result. For example, it might refer to a delay that occurs between the time a key is pressed on the keyboard and the time that the corresponding character appears on the screen. This is one simple example, but there are many other situations where lag might be a problem.
Working with computers can be stressful enough without having to deal with mouse and keyboard lag. Poor computer performance can quickly lead to diminished overall work output, so removing mouse and keyboard issues will greatly improve efficiency. The most likely reasons could be interference from certain hardware or software, Windows settings, or types of peripherals used. Windows 10 mouse lags can appear during mouse cursor scrolling with a wireless Bluetooth mouse or trackpad on Windows 10 laptop or desktop computers. If you experience Windows 10 lag problems with your mouse (the cursor stutters, freezes, or does not move at all), read the guide below to find a possible solution.

Reinstall/Update Your Mouse Driver
A device driver is software that informs the operating system and other software how to interact with particular hardware. It is like a translator between software and hardware, since they often are created by different manufacturers, companies, or people. The driver facilitates smooth communication between hardware and software. In most cases, computers are unable to send and receive data correctly without drivers. If the appropriate driver is not installed, the device might not function properly, if at all. A fault with your mouse driver might cause problems with lag. Try your mouse on another computer to see if you can repeat the problem. If not, then you probably have a faulty driver and that requires re-installation. To do so, type 'device manager' in Search and click the 'Device Manager' result to open it.
In Device Manager, find 'Mice and other pointing devices', expand it and right-click on your mouse, select 'Uninstall' from the drop-down menu to uninstall it. Restart the computer and Windows will automatically install the missing driver.
You can also try updating your mouse driver. Repeat the steps and select 'Update driver' from the drop-down menu when right-clicked on your mouse in the Device Manager window. You will be asked if you want to search for updated driver software automatically or to browse your computer for driver software. If you select the first option, Windows will search your computer and the Internet for the latest driver software for your device. If you select to browse your computer for driver software, you will need to have the correct driver on your computer or USB drive. You can find the driver on your mouse manufacturer's website.
Another way to update or install a new driver for your mouse is by using third-party software such as Snappy Driver Installer. You will need a computer with a working internet connection in order to download it.
Snappy Driver Installer (SDI) is a powerful free driver updater tool for Windows that can store its entire collection of drivers offline. Having offline drivers gives Snappy Driver Installer the ability to have access to fast driver updates, even if there is no active internet connection. Snappy Driver works with both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Windows 10, Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows Vista, and Windows XP. Drivers are downloaded through Snappy Driver Installer in what are called driverpacks, which are just collections (packs) of drivers for various hardware like sound devices, video cards, network adapters etc. It can also show duplicate drivers and invalid drivers and it separates the updates that require you to restart your computer so it would be easier to distinguish them from the rest. You can download Snappy Driver Installer from here.
After you have finished updating and installing drivers, restart Windows 10 for the changes to take effect and see if this helps to fix the mouse lag problem.
Update Your Graphics Driver
To update the graphic driver through Windows, go to Device Manager (as described in the method above). In the Device Manager window, expand 'Display adapters' (or click the arrow showing right). Right-click the graphics driver and select 'Update driver'.
Windows will ask you how you want to search for drivers. Click 'Search automatically for updated driver software'. Windows will find and install drivers for you.

Disable/Enable Scroll Inactive Windows Feature
One of the native features of Windows 10 is the ability to scroll inactive windows by simply hovering over such a window with the mouse pointer and then using the mouse wheel. The contents of the inactive window will be scrolled. For example, if you have an inactive Notepad window containing text, that text will be scrolled. The focus will not change and remain in the current active window. Disabling this feature (and re-enabling, if needed) might help to fix the mouse lag issue. To disable/enable this feature go to Settings and click 'Devices'.
In Devices settings, click 'Mouse' (or 'Mouse & touchpad') on the left pane and then try disabling and enabling the 'Scroll inactive windows when I hover them' feature a few times and check if the issue is resolved.

End Realtek Audio Process
Lazy Mouse Exe
It is possible that your Realtek audio card (or other audio card) might interfere with your mouse and cause the lag issue. To fix this problem, you need to terminate the Realtek audio process in Task Manager. Right-click on Start and click 'Task Manager' to open it.
In Task Manager, find 'Realtek audio.exe' under the 'Processes' tab and right-click it. Select 'End task' from the drop-down menu to end the process.
This issue can also be caused by Realtek Audio Manager. In some cases, this application starts automatically with Windows and causes the problem to occur. To fix the issue, open Task Manager again and disable Realtek Audio Manager in the Startup tab. In the Task Manager window, click 'Startup' tab and try to locate Realtek Audio Manager. If it appears, select it by clicking it, and then click 'Disable' to disable it from launching on Windows startup.
Disable Fast Startup
Fast startup is a feature on Windows 10 (and also Windows 8) that provides a faster boot time when starting up your computer. It is a useful feature and one that most people use without knowing, however, some people disable it immediately when they receive a new computer with the Windows operating system. With the fast startup feature enabled, shutting down your computer might seem like you are completely shutting it down, but this is not entirely true, since it moves into a state between hibernation and shutdown. Leaving fast startup enabled should not harm your PC, since it is a Windows feature, but this could be the reason why the mouse is lagging. To fix the problem, you could disable this feature to see if it helps. To disable this feature, go to Search and type 'control panel'. Click on the 'Control Panel' result to open it.
In Control Panel, set 'View by:' to 'Small icons', find 'Power options' and click it.
In the Power Options window, click 'Choose what the power button does'.
Click on 'Change settings that are currently unavailable' and then uncheck the 'Turn on fast startup (recommended)' option if it is enabled. Click 'Save changes' to save the changes made. Your mouse should start working normally again.
Disable Cortana
Cortana is a virtual assistant created by Microsoft. Disabling it might resolve the problem with mouse lag. To disable Cortana, open it and go to Settings in the top left corner. In Settings, find the 'Cortana can give you suggestions, ideas, reminders, alerts and more' option and set it to 'Off'. Check if this helps to resolve the issue.

Disconnect Other USB Devices
Another solution that might help is to disconnect any other devices from USB ports. Often, other USB devices can interfere with the mouse and cause a lag issue. Try to disconnect your portable hard drive from the USB port if there is one connected (you do not need to disconnect your keyboard).
There are different USB port types. For example USB 2.0 and USB 1.0 differ in the data transfer rate they are capable of. The maximum speed that USB 1.0 devices can achieve is 12Mbps, while 2.0 devices can theoretically achieve up to 40 times more. If you are using a wireless mouse, try connecting its receiver to the USB 2.0 port.

In Device Manager, find 'Universal Serial Bus controllers' and expand it. Double-click the USB Hub device to open its properties.
In the USB Hub device properties window, click the 'Power Management' tab and uncheck the 'Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power' checkbox. Repeat these steps for all USB Hub devices your computer. After completing these steps, your mouse should work properly and without any lag.

How in the world would you recommend 'Snappy Driver'? I tried to install it and not only did it take over my CPU, but it ALSO advised me it was installing software like browsers and anti-virus programs and didn't even allow me to decline installing them! First thing I do when I buy a new PC I delete bloatware. I don't need a program to install more! It sat at 95% installation for waaay too long without my PC's action light blinking. It wasn't doing anything. I'll just go back to the way I always did things thanks! By going to the manufacturers website and searching for updates. At least I know what I'm getting!
