Question

I purchased a M-soft Bluetooth designer mouse, to which I am trying to connect to a Lenovo T460s running windows 10.

1) recognise mouse, paired + works momentarily

2) stays connected, but un responsive

What I have tried to troubleshoot

1) update drivers, currently most recent ones

2) check properties, all says running as should be

3) changed the surface the mouse flows on, hardwood, mouse pad and cloth

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to resolve and get mouse to work consistently ?

Thanks, in advance

Maybe your issue is of technical nature, and nothing’s actually wrong with your configuration or software.

So, make sure nothing is blocking your Bluetooth signal if none of the solutions from the above work. Here are a few things to keep in mind:

• Place your wireless mouse closer to the wireless transceiver.
• If your keyboard is also wireless, place both the keyboard and mouse at an equal distance from the transceiver.
• Turn the transceiver on its side or upside down.

10. Check for Windows Updates

Besides regular system updates, Microsoft usually delivers various drivers through Windows Update. So, there’s a chance a new driver for your Bluetooth devices (mouse) is ready.

If you couldn’t install it through the Device Manager, you’ll probably want to try it through Windows Update.

Another benefit of installing the latest Windows 10 updates is system stability.

If a bug in your system causes your Bluetooth mouse to stop working, there’s a chance Microsoft will release a fix as part of some update.

To check for updates, simply go to the Settings app, click on Windows Update, and check for updates.

I have owned a Asus N76VM laptop for a few years now and it runs perfect under Win 7, 8, 8.1 and even Windows 10.

The latest irritation was de BT driver.
I own 2 Bluetooth mouses and they won’t connect running the current Windows 10 drivers.
(Trust Maxtrack and the Microsoft Sculpt Touchmouse)
Tere’s no problem with other BT devices such as the JBL headphones E50BT.
After searching on the internet i came across somebody with WLAN adapter problems who just ignored all update advice and installed the Windows 7 64bit driver running in compatibility mode within Windows 10 and everything worked fine.
So my toughts exactly for the BT drivers and again that worked for me as well.
I now can use bluetooth mouses again.
What i am saying is: sometimes you have to think out of the box and go your own way, witch is not always the Microsoft way or the manufacturers way.
