I upgraded to Windows 11. All was fine except after ~1 day, the mouse left-click becomes unstable.
The mouse's left-click only works some of the time, else no response.
eg when 2 apps minimised in taskbar at bottom, clicking on them doesn't maxmise.
After a further hour, there is also the Windows whirling blue circle (ala please wait) but nothing happens, and Windows get progressively unstable.
If I reboot, everything works again, but I would rather fix the problem than a temporary bandaid solution every day or so.
I check the mouse drivers and they are up to date.
The same mouse worked fine in Win 10.
I tried "sfc /scannow" but that didn't fix the problem.
Any suggestions?

Have you tried to see if RELIABILITY MONITOR can give you any hints of the issue?
Reliability Monitor is the Best Windows Troubleshooting Tool You Aren’t Using
When it comes to hidden gems in Windows, nothing beats the Reliability monitor tool, hidden behind a link inside of another tool that you don’t use either. Why Microsoft doesn’t shine more light on this really useful troubleshooting tool, we’ll never know.

No action was recommended... and I don't use Skype.
Any suggestions?

I tried both above options, but none stop the problem. They seem to be a symptom rather than the cause.
So every day my mouse and Win 11 work fine, then out of nowhere the mouse starts to fail, as per my 8:58pm post.
Only rebooting daily (usually twice) fixes the problem, and each reboot is very slow ~5 minutes.
