Troubleshooting

Mouse or keyboard not detected after plugging in

Ensure the USB cable is securely plugged into both the device and the computer. Try a different USB port on your computer. Restart your computer. If the issue persists, test the combo on another computer to rule out a hardware failure.

Keys on the keyboard are not responding or repeating

Check for any debris lodged under the keys. Try cleaning the keyboard. If using a laptop, ensure the keyboard filter keys are not enabled in accessibility settings. Restart the computer. If specific keys are faulty, consider it a hardware issue with the keyboard.

Mouse cursor movement is erratic or inaccurate

Ensure the mouse sensor on the bottom is clean and free from dust or obstruction. Use the mouse on a suitable surface (avoiding glass or highly reflective surfaces). Check if the DPI setting is appropriate; for this model, it's fixed at 1200 DPI, so ensure the surface is compatible. Test on a different mousepad or surface.

Copilot key is not launching Microsoft Copilot

Ensure you are running a compatible version of Windows (Windows 11 with the latest updates). Verify that Microsoft Copilot is enabled and functional within your operating system. Check for any keyboard software conflicts.
