Slower scripts after windows update

Post by tutulek » 21 Apr 2021, 09:37

Hi, I'm using a script for a game that moves the mouse (with a loop) and clicks

the thing is, after updating windows today and not changing anything in the code, the mouse moves slower (had to set default mouse speed to 0 as a workaround)

anyone knows why that happened?

SetMouseDelay,3 ;remove delays from mouse actions | this was the original "config" to get very fast speed
SetDefaultMouseSpeed, 0;had to add this as a workaround

I have a Logitech mouse variable up to 3200 DPI. If I accidentally change to 200 DPI (button on mouse) the mouse really slows down.

I didn't change the DPI, also I don't have a button configured to change it

I assume the slowdown is always whether in the game ir not.

I can only recommend the typical Windows troubleshooting:
. Uninstall custom mouse driver, if any
. Windows update to assure you're to totally up to date
. Run as admin, sfc /scanow ( takes time)
. Reinstall AHK
