Windows 10: Mouse stopps being able to click on things

My mouse has suddenly stopped clicking on things. But its not the mouse thats the problem because I bought a new one and have the same issues. I can click on some things and cant click on others and the only way to temporarily fix it is switching the port the mouse is plugged into and restart my pc but then over time while using my pc it will slowly stop clicking on things again and its different things each time. Sometimes I can click onto some discord servers and not others or i can open the server but cant join a call or open settings or sometimes cant click discord at all and can happen fo

Wireless mouse "driver is unavailable" issues

Hi,

The error Driver is unavailable means that there is no available driver installed for your mouse that’s why it is not working. We suggest that you check the mouse driver from the device manager. Follow the steps below:

• Open Device Manager.
• Look for Mice and other pointing devices and click it to expand.
• Check if there is a driver for the wireless mouse.

If there is none, we suggest that you visit the manufacturer’s website of the mouse and download then install the latest mouse driver compatible to Windows 10.
