Mouse Acceleration or pointer precision is a thing that helps you to make your mouse more efficient to use. It changes the rate at which your mouse pointer moves based on how fast you move the mouse so you can reach the target soon and work even more efficiently. Mouse acceleration is available in all versions of Windows, including Windows 11. By default mouse acceleration is enabled on Windows 11. If you don’t like the feature, you can disable it whenever you want. Microsoft has provided an option to enable or disable the mouse acceleration feature on Windows 11 by simply navigating to the settings.
