Question Strange and annoying problem when dragging files, pictures and videos with the mouse ?

[aor999]

Often, when I dragging files, pictures, videos and even shortcuts, this is what happens:

What you see me doing is dragging files with the mouse pointer. After a while, the file disappears from the mouse pointer. This prevents me from dragging videos to upload to Youtube and from dragging pictures to websites for uploading.
Why?

try a different mouse, maybe the button of the mouse is faulty

The mouse is relatively new Microsoft Basic Optical Mouse 2.0.
Don't expecting it to have problematic left button.

The mouse is relatively new Microsoft Basic Optical Mouse 2.0.
Don't expecting it to have problematic left button.

There are a few options:

- Try the mouse on a different machine and see if it results in the same problem, if it DOES, it's a faulty mouse
- Have you uninstalling drivers for the mouse in Device Manager, restarting, then seeing if the issue persists?

My bet is, you could possibly have a faulty mouse even with it being new.. it's not unheard of
