Инверсия мыши в конкретных играх или программах отключается через настройки приложения. Далее речь пойдет об инверсированном движении во всей операционной системе без исключения.
Способ 1: Перезапуск оборудования
Причиной неправильной работы мыши могут стать ошибки в системе, драйверах, а также сбои специального программного обеспечения для управления настройками манипулятора. Если эти ошибки и сбои носят временный характер, решить проблему можно перезапуском оборудования. В этом случае рекомендуется предпринять следующие шаги:
- Отсоедините мышь или ее адаптер от компьютера, а затем заново подключите.
- Если мышь беспроводная, обесточьте ее, вытащив из корпуса батарейки. Выждав несколько минут, вставьте элементы питания обратно и проверьте работу устройства.
- Замените батарейки.
- Перезагрузите компьютер. Именно перезагрузите, а не выключите и включите.
Также желательно проверить работу мышки на другом компьютере и, наоборот, подключить к компьютеру другую мышку. Если инверсия наблюдается на других устройствах, это может указывать на повреждение прошивки или неисправность микросхемы манипулятора. В таких случаях устройство проще заменить.
Способ 2: Настройки мыши
Если мышь исправна физически, можно начинать поиск проблем в самой операционной системе, в частности в системных настройках манипулятора.
- Вызовите диалоговое окошко «Выполнить» нажатием клавиш Win + R, введите в него команду
control /name microsoft.mouseи нажмите клавишу ввода. - В открывшемся окне свойств мыши переключитесь на вкладку «Кнопки мыши» и убедитесь, что настойка «Обменять назначение кнопок» отключена. В противном случае деактивируйте ее вручную.
Настройки профессиональных геймерских мышек могут быть вынесены в отдельную панель (утилиту), открыть которую можно либо из области системного трея, либо из классической «Панели управления». Если такие настройки доступны, также уделите им внимание.
Способ 3: «Редактор реестра»
Теоретически инверсия мыши могла быть включена сторонним программным обеспечением – играми, твикерами, кастомизаторами и подобными приложениями. Решить эту проблему можно путем внесения соответствующих изменений непосредственно в реестр.
- Откройте «Редактор реестра» командой
regedit, выполненной в вызванном нажатием комбинации клавиш Win + R окошке «Выполнить». - Перейдите в раздел
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Mouse, отыщите в правой колонке параметрSwapMouseButtonsи посмотрите его значение.
Если это «1», откройте окошко редактирования значения параметра двойным кликом и установите в качестве значения «0».
- Если параметр
SwapMouseButtonsотсутствует, создайте его вручную, для чего в контекстном меню подраздела «Mouse» выберите опцию «Создать» → «Строковый параметр». - Чтобы настройки вступили в силу, перезагрузите компьютер.
Способ 4: Переустановка драйвера устройства
Сбросить настройки мыши можно путем переустановки ее драйвера в «Диспетчере устройств».
- Откройте «Диспетчер устройств» из контекстного меню кнопки «Пуск» либо командой
devmgmt.mscв диалоговом окошке «Выполнить». - Найдите и разверните раздел «Мыши и иные указывающие устройства», вызовите контекстное меню устройства «HID-совместимая мышь» и выберите опцию «Удалить устройство».
- Подтвердите операцию в открывшемся диалоговом окошке.
- Нажмите на клавиатуре F5, чтобы обновить конфигурацию оборудования, либо перезагрузите компьютер.
Способ 5: Откат или обновление драйвера
Если неполадка возникла после установки обновлений Windows, проверьте статус текущего драйвера мыши и откатите или обновите его в зависимости от результатов проверки.
- Откройте «Диспетчер устройств» как было показано в предыдущем способе, перейдите в раздел «Мыши и иные указывающие устройства» и вызовите свойства мыши двойным по ней кликом.
- Переключитесь в окне свойств на вкладку «Драйвер» и нажмите кнопку «Откатить», если она активна.
- Если кнопка неактивна, это означает, что на компьютере нет старой (предыдущей) версии драйвера. В этом случае можно попробовать обновить драйвер, нажав одноименную кнопку и проследовав дальнейшим указаниям мастера.
Если используется профессиональная мышь, драйвер рекомендуется поискать на официальном сайте производителя устройства.
Если восстановить нормальную работу мыши не удается, можно выполнить откат Windows 10 к точке восстановления, на момент создания которой проблем не наблюдалось.
