Setting Mouse Speed Beyond Maximum

I had asked the following question on Microsoft Answers: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_11-other_settings/setting-mouse-speed-beyond-maximum/dc03fab2-1cd8-4868-bafe-e3d84cc19c4b Since a solution is not easy to find, it was suggested to me to post the question on Microsoft Learn. Does anyone know what exactly needs to be changed in the system registry or some other settings in order to set the cursor speed (mouse sensitivity) beyond maximum? I have tried changing various values in Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Mouse, but the cursor speed was not affected. The program Custom Curve did not affect the speed either.

    Hi. You cannot set the mouse movement to exceed the maximum speed, only the speed of mouse movement. The steps to set the mouse movement speed are as follows: Win+R enter "main.cpl", enter the mouse properties interface, switch the "Mouse Keys" tab, you can adjust the double-click speed of the mouse, and finally click "OK". Then switch to the "Pointer Options" tab, you can set the pointer speed, check "Enhance pointer precision", and click "OK".User's image

    Hope the information is helpful.

    Thank you for the information. I am aware of the options in the Mouse Properties. I need to set the value of the cursor speed beyond maximum. That is why I tried changing various values in the system registry. Do you know where exactly the system stores the value of the cursor speed?

    I was also looking for this, because the mouse was not fast enough with my touchpad. But the touchpad speed is a separate setting.
