Microsoft Brings More Mouse Features to Settings in Windows 11

Microsoft continues its mission to modernize the Windows 11 experience by migrating more mouse settings from the legacy Control Panel to the Settings app. This move is part of the company’s effort to streamline system management and enhance user convenience.

Why the Shift to Settings?

The Control Panel has long been a core component of Windows for system management. However, with Windows 11, Microsoft aims to create a more unified and intuitive interface. By moving mouse customization options to the Settings app, users can enjoy:

A simpler and more user-friendly interface.

Improved accessibility and functionality.

Seamless integration with other Windows 11 features.

What Mouse Features Are Being Moved?

  1. Pointer Speed Adjustment – Users can now modify cursor speed directly from the Settings app.
  2. Mouse Button Configuration – Swap primary and secondary buttons easily.
  3. Scroll Wheel Customization – Adjust how many lines to scroll at a time.
  4. Pointer Precision Options – Enable or disable enhanced pointer precision.

How to Access the New Mouse Settings in Windows 11

  1. Open Settings from the Start menu.
  2. Navigate to Bluetooth & devices > Mouse.
  3.  Explore various options to adjust your pointer speed, scrolling behavior, and button configuration.

Benefits for Users

Enhanced User Experience: No need to switch between Control Panel and Settings.

Improved Accessibility: Easier navigation for users with different needs.

Modern Design Consistency: Aligns with the sleek Windows 11 interface.

What’s Next for Control Panel?

With Microsoft gradually phasing out Control Panel functions, more settings related to hardware and personalization will likely be integrated into the Settings app in future updates.

The transition of mouse settings to Windows 11's Settings app marks another step toward a more streamlined and user-friendly operating system. This update not only enhances usability but also aligns with Microsoft’s long-term vision of creating a cohesive, modern interface.
