Any major issue such as this with a new install with a new OS would suggest to me a driver issue, If you can fill in as much as possible of your system specs, it could be that someone else has similar and can guide you as to what driver is needed and where to obtain it

    This is an older PC for testing new OS,
    Furthermore: 4 Dell/HP laptops on Win7 Ultimate x64, used for NAS, Media server, browsing, workshop and sound studio
I have seen this behavior in laptops where their keyboard and touchpad are identified as PS/2 devices in Device Manager. Most likely there will be a yellow ! on the keyboard device indicating a problem. I would use an external USB mouse, just in case, then load Device Manager and uninstall (delete) any other mouse or keyboard. Restart and the laptop's one should now work fine. Should you need to type while doing this, you can enable the onscreen keyboard. I don't remember if this applies in Windows 11, but in 10 you do that by right-click on the taskbar and select Show touch keyboard button. Then click on the button to show or hide the keyboard.
