USB Mouse Not Working

Upon switching on my Alienware computer running Windows 10 a few days ago, I noticed that my USB mice were no longer working. I've tried several fixes but none have worked.

The only recommended fix I have yet to attempt is to uninstall the touchpad driver, for reasons which should be obvious (because if I did that, I would not be able to easily reinstall its driver, since I would be unable to navigate my system without a working mouse).

I don't want to reinstall Windows, since that would mean many hours of reinstallation of software and my touchpad is working, but my mice are all high-end trackballs and I would like to use them if possible.

Thanks in advance for any advice!

    Hi @Gods Prophet,

    Is this happening only with USB mice or with all the USB devices?
