The mouse is one of those elements that we use constantly when we are with our computer, so it must work perfectly, especially in Windows. This is something similar to what happens with the keyboard or screen that we have connected to the PC.
And this is a device that we use for almost everything, to play, surf the Internet, move through the operating system itself, etc. Of course, if we are habitual in the mentioned games for PC or programs of design or retouching, the importance of the mouse is increased in this case. This is because for this type of use, the mouse manageability is more important than ever.
Improve the use of the mouse in Windows 10 to make it more precise
Thus, if you are new to the world of PC games or have been playing but you do not feel that this element will work well, we have a solution. The same happens if we are not comfortable using this peripheral in any other program in Windows. Specifically, we refer to the possibility of changing IPRs to improve their functioning. Specifically, when we refer to IPRs, we are really talking about its sensitivity. Thus, this small adjustment can help improve mouse performance in a game or in any other application that needs pointer accuracy.
Of course, the fact that we need to increase or decrease the DPI of the mouse in Windows will depend largely on the needs of each. As we say, this is something useful for the players, however, if this is not the case but we are not at all comfortable with the performance of this element, it is worth trying the adjustments that we will show you. At this point, if we want to try this change in the mouse, the first thing will be to open the Windows 10 Configuration application.
We achieve this through the combination of Win + I keys, where we are located in the Devices section, and then on the left panel Mouse. Then, on the right we look for an option called Additional mouse options, where we click to access the link.
At that time a new window will open, which is actually the old mouse configuration we saw in Windows 7 and 8.1. This is because at the moment Microsoft has not yet migrated this to the Configuration application. Well, as we see, in the Pointer Options tab, there are two configurations that we have the possibility to change and which are the ones that interest us now.
Adjust the settings of this peripheral in Windows
The first one is a scroll bar that basically refers to the sensitivity of the mouse. This dictates its speed and how much screen space the cursor covers when we move it. Of course, we must do several tests in this regard until we give the ideal point and we are most interested.
In fact we can try different speeds to see which one best suits what we need in each case. On the other hand we also find a control that is just below this slide bar. Specifically, we refer to the call Improve pointer accuracy , which by default is activated.
Actually this functionality that we find here is designed to prevent click on the empty spaces. This allows the operating system to “guess” where we are going to click even if the cursor is a few pixels away. To say that for example for games this is rather an obstacle, so in this case we recommend deactivating it.
