    Turning game mode on causes mouse lag

    Hi Kay,

    For me to better assist you with this concern, I would like to gather more information about the issue at hand. Allow me to ask the following:

    • What updates were trying to install on the background?
    • Did the issue appear after the updates were installed?
    • What type of mouse were you using?
    • Does the mouse lags when playing a specific game?

    In the meantime, please start your computer in safe mode and see if the issue persists. Doing so will help us determine whether or not the recent updates have triggered the problem. Please check the link Start
    your PC in safe mode in Windows 10
    for the steps.

    Looking forward to your reply.

    Regards.
