Mouse Click Not Registering When Moving Quickly in Android Emulators

Hello!

I’m reaching out regarding an issue I’m experiencing in all Android emulators on my PC: mouse clicks do not register when moving the cursor quickly. I've attached a video of the problem. 

Problem Description:

  • Mouse clicks only register when moving the cursor very slowly or when completely stopped.
  • If I move the mouse quickly, clicks are not detected, making gameplay nearly impossible.
  • The issue occurs in every Android emulator I’ve tried, regardless of settings.

Troubleshooting Steps I’ve Taken:

  1. Reinstalled Windows.
  2. Tested with different mice.
  3. Updated mouse, GPU, and USB drivers.
  4. Adjusted emulator settings (RAM allocation, CPU cores, graphics modes).
  5. Reinstalled games and tried different emulator versions.
  6. Tested on different operating systems (if applicable).

Other users do not seem to have this issue, so I suspect a specific software or configuration conflict.

Question:
Could you help me identify the cause? Are there any hidden emulator, driver, or system settings that might affect input handling? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you in advance for your support!

  • Emulators aren't a supported platform. It was the stance of the original dev team as well. (actually at the time people were debating if Emulator should even be allowed, the devs said they cannot officially endorse emulator but never took action against it, which I am glad about because it is way more comfy to not hunch over a phone).

    It is a known bug. It is probably never going to be addressed given it is on multiple emulators.

    Mobile > emulator, and this is one of the reasons why.

    Thank you for your reply. 

    Strange, streamers 13lade, Entsorger and TheX don't have this bug.
