Mouse going crazy. What am I doing wrong?

[machenryr]

I am using a logi MX Master 3 mouse. For some reason half the time when I move the mouse the window changes, or goes to the desktop and hides the window of the app I'm working with. It's very frustrating. I've never seen this before. I'm sure it's how I have inadvertently set up the mouse. Or is it a setting in MOUSE in references? I didn't see anything. Help.

Possible you're hitting the corners of the screen and inadvertantly triggering "hot corners" shortcuts?

Mac Hot Corners are shortcuts for your mouse. Just throw your mouse cursor to the corner of the screen (the easiest place to hit) to perform quick actions. You can instantly lock the screen, start a screensaver, show the desktop, show all windows and more.

If not that the next thing I'd check would be some shortcut set up in the Logi software.

I know it sounds obvious but check your mouse charge levels. Back in my PC days I had a similar issue and that’s what caused it

What kind of surface are you using the mouse on?

It's possible I am using exaggerated movements and hitting those corners. I've thought about this.

Some 3M mouse pad. I don't like it. It's pretty slick. I can try another one.

I unwrapped a new logi mouse pad and what do you know? It works much better. The other was just too slick. The mouse flew all over the place. Supposed to be the "newest technology". LOL.
