    Run a full scan with your antivirus software to detect and remove any malware that might be affecting your internet connection.

    If multiple devices are using the same network, it can lead to congestion and slow speeds. Try disconnecting some devices or reducing their internet usage.
  • Mouse Clicks Not Responding:
    Check Mouse Hardware:

    Ensure that your mouse is connected properly to the USB port.
    Test the mouse on a different computer to see if the issue persists.
    Update Mouse Drivers:

    Right-click on the Start button and select "Device Manager."
    Locate the "Mice and other pointing devices" category.
    Right-click on your mouse device and choose "Update driver."
    Rollback Mouse Driver:

    If updating the driver doesn't help, you can try rolling back to the previous driver version.
    In the "Device Manager," right-click on your mouse device, choose "Properties," go to the "Driver" tab, and click "Roll Back Driver" if available.
    Check for Windows Updates:

    Make sure your Windows 11 is fully updated. Sometimes, Microsoft releases patches that can address hardware compatibility issues.
    Run Hardware Troubleshooter:

    Open Settings > System > Troubleshoot > Additional troubleshooters.
    Run the "Hardware and Devices" troubleshooter.
    Check for Software Conflicts:

    Some third-party software might interfere with mouse functionality. Try booting into Safe Mode to see if the issue persists.
    Internet Slowness:
    Restart Your Router:

    Unplug your router, wait for about 10 seconds, and then plug it back in. This can often resolve connectivity issues.
    Check Network Usage:

    Open the Task Manager (Ctrl + Shift + Esc) and check the "Network" tab to see if any applications are using a significant amount of bandwidth.
    Update Network Drivers:

    Similar to the mouse, make sure your network drivers are up to date. You can update them in the "Device Manager."
    Disable Background Apps:

    Go to Settings > Privacy > Background apps and turn off unnecessary apps running in the background.
    Run Network Troubleshooter:

    Open Settings > Update & Security > Troubleshoot > Additional troubleshooters.
    Run the "Internet Connections" troubleshooter.
    Check for Malware:

    Run a full system antivirus scan to ensure that malware is not causing the slowdown.
    Disable Windows Update Delivery Optimization:

    Go to Settings > Windows Update > Advanced options > Delivery Optimization.
    Turn off "Allow downloads from other PCs."

      How are we suppose to right click when the computer isn't responding to mouse clicks?

      I have the same problem, I've only gotten this far because I have a touch screen
