Turn On or Off Enhance Pointer Precision in Windows 11
This tutorial will show you how to turn on or off enhance pointer precision for your account in Windows 10 and Windows 11.

Enhance pointer precision makes the pointer work more accurately when you're moving the mouse slowly, but it can make the pointer less precise in other situations. Your mileage may vary. The MouseSpeed, MouseThreshold1, and MouseThreshold2 string values in the HKCU\Control Panel\Mouse key in Registry Editor determine when and...
