The mouse bug in Star Wars Battlefront 2 can be annoying, but it can be fixed. There are various reasons why the mouse pointer is not displayed or the mouse does not react. Accordingly, there are also several solutions for the problem.
Fix mouse bug in Star Wars Battlefront 2
The mouse bug shows up in Star Wars Battlefront 2 either by the mouse not responding or the mouse pointer not showing up at all or only showing up as a spinning wheel.
- Before taking any further action, check that the mouse is connected correctly. It may help to try a different USB slot.
- Next, try the “all-purpose weapon” for such problems: restart the computer or console. This will close all programmes, clear the RAM, fix small bugs and create some order.
- If the problem persists, quit the game and update your system if an update is available.
- In general, system drivers are also updated with an update.
Star Wars Battlefront 2: Fix mouse bug due to interference from overlay programs
Eventually, overlay programs are responsible for mouse issues in Star Wars Battlefront 2 if the mouse bug is still present.
- If a restart and the update did not have the desired success, turn your attention to the annoying overlay programs. Discord in particular is considered a troublemaker for the function of the mouse in Star Wars Battlefront 2.
- If you have the in-game overlay Discord installed, you should at least disable it if you don’t want to uninstall Discord.
- To do this, quit Star Wars Battlefront 2, start Discord and open the settings via the gear icon.
- Click “Overlay” and move the slider next to “Enable in-game overlay” to the left.
- If the mouse bug persists after restarting the game, open the task manager and search for Discord processes. Close the relevant processes.
- If the mouse still does not work, close the game again, launch Origin and then launch Application Settings.
- Then click on “More” and “Origin In-Game” in the menu bar.
- Slide the slider behind “Activate Origin In-Game” to deactivate the overlay.
- Another annoying overlay is the GeForce Experience overlay. To disable this overlay, start GeForce Experience and open the settings via the gear icon.
- Under the “General” tab, remove the tick before activating the overlay.
