Many mouse features suddenly quit working

T

Teacher Sheree

While working in Word a few days ago, my mouse features quit working. For
instance: selecting text, copying, pasting, using scroll, are just a few. I
have to manually use the arrows and back space to move anywhere in the
document.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled and it is still doing it.
Anyone else experience this before? HELP!

Probably a corrupt Word DataKey. Run Regedit and delete the DataKey which
Word will automatically regenerate when it is next started.

Word DataKey

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\version number\Word\Data

Click on the Start button and choose Run. Type "regedit" (without the
quotation marks) in the Open box.
