all my usb ports don't work. I have tried multiple mouses, one port connects for a few seconds at a certain angle but stops again - how do i fix this?? is there any bluetooth like mouses that don't require anything plugging in? not having a mouse is honestly unbearable it limits a lot i can do. i have an acer computer, windows 10: hardware specs

im mostly asking for 2/3 of my usb ports because in one of them the blue disk thing fell out and then subsequently snapped soo..

im a completely clueless with all this, but im gonna try my best to provide as much info as possible which i'll edit in a min. im thinking this could be 'fixed' with a bluetooth mouse, but I dont know if there are any without a dongle?
