I just had a very frusterating week trying to debug why my brand new install of Windows 10 had issues where my SpaceMouse would cut out/stutter in every application I used (Solidworks, Fusion360, PrusaSlicer, even the training program). I finally decided to try it in safe mode and got it working just fine so after a bit of sleuthing, it looks like Windows Game Bar was interfering with it.
I figured I should pass along this information both as a note for the Devs and as a PSA to anyone else having this kind of issue.
If anyone's unsure how to do this, here's a link: https://www.howtogeek.com/705656/how-to ... -game-bar/

Thanks for the heads up and workaround citizen_insane!
I'll inform our dev team about this. Hopefully we can reproduce this issue and do something about the incompatibility from our end.

I would like to thank you, Citizen_insane! I had the exact same problem, after letting windows update the other night!
My spacemouse became unresponsive/lagging - things were moving very slowly and not smoothly like they used to. I was literaly going MAD!!
I followed your advise, and went to https://www.howtogeek.com/705656/how-to ... -game-bar/ - disabled it, and now it seems that things are back to normal again.
If this is a general thing that Microsoft has done, I think we can expect that a lot of users are going to need this tip!!
