External mouse clicks not working during UAC prompt/windows or other elevated privilege programs
- by user26453
I have a Logitech Revolution VX, a small portable mouse. I use it on my laptop running Windows 7 64bit Professional.
When a UAC prompt comes up, I can use the mouse to move the pointer, however any clicking via the external mouse is disabled. I have to use my trackpad to actually click. This continues on into whatever UAC window comes next, such as a program install. The mouse pointer can move via my external mouse, but no button clicks register except on the trackpad.
This also happens if I am to right click a program and select "Run as Administrator". The external mouse will move the pointer, but no button clicks work.
I've tried to google for this issue but haven't found anything. To be it seems generally a problem with my external mouse driver not running with elevated privileges itself.
Any help would be appreciated.
