Bootcamp Keyboard and Mouse not working

Hi,

I’ve just finished installing bootcamp (on a external hard drive) on my MacBook Air 2018. I’ve run Setup.exe from C:/Windows Support/Bootcamp, and restarted as it requested, however neither my built in keyboard or mouse is responding.

Please help!

Mouse hover suddenly started behaving like click Both on Mac OS as on Bootcamp (Windows). Basically whenever I hover a mouse over anything like app icon, close button, windows button, mac button or anything that is clickable - the click event occurs. Os if I hover the mouse over an icon it opens the app, when over windows buttons it keeps opening and closing windows menu etc. Same with mac top left menu etc. The restart does not fix the issue. It perists. I am unable to do anything because whatever I hover over it causes click action. The same is happening when I try to use keyboard. It just does opens and closes any menu/ app instantly. What am I supposed to do? I think it's Big Sur but not sure (can't even click on to check the current system version).

Internal Keyboard and Trackpad Whenever I open my mac, I am unable to use the keyboard and trackpad. It works on the login screen, but after that, it gets stuck in the top left corner of the screen and the keyboard doesn't work. The only way it allows me to use the keyboard and trackpad is to connect external keyboard and mouse. I want to check if there is a solution before I redownload my Monterey version.

No keyboard or mouse after Sequoia upgrade Mac Mini M1. Just upgraded to Sequoia 15 last night. I use a KVM switch to bounce between my Windows PC and the Mac. (In other words...I'm using a standard wired Windows kbd.) I reconnected a wired Apple keyboard and mouse in order to "get control". I have booted in Safe mode...did not help (with both the KVM and Apple kbd/mouse connected.) Trying to boot into Safe mode with just the KVM does not work because it does not recognize the required Shift key press to enter Safe mode. In System settings where it allows you to select a keyboard (I forget exactly which sub-section) my only choice is "Apple keyboard". I have full control when I have the Apple kbd/mouse connected...nothing via the KVM. I've been using the KVM for well over a year now with no issues...even having done a previous OS upgrade. Any ideas?

I know this may not be helpful to most people facing this, but for me it just solved itself after a few days
