- Find GameInput Service, double-click it, and set the Startup type to Automatic.

Solution 3: Restart GameInput via CMD
You can also restart the GameInput service using Command Prompt.
- Press Windows + R, type cmd, and press Ctrl + Shift + Enter.
- Type these commands one by one, pressing Enter after each:

Solution 4: Delete Duplicate GameInput Services
Sometimes, having multiple GameInput services can cause problems.
- Go back to services.msc and check for duplicates.
- Right-click the extra service, choose Properties, and check the Path executable.
- Use File Explorer to delete the unnecessary one.

If the GameInput service is missing, downloading and installing GameInputRedist.msi may help.
Solution 6: Verify Game Files Integrity
Corrupted files can lead to issues. Here’s how to verify them:
- Open Steam and go to your Library.
- Right-click on God of War Ragnarok and select Properties.
- Click on Installed Files, then choose Verify integrity of game files.
Solution 7: Reconnect Your Mouse
Simply turning your wireless mouse off and back on can sometimes resolve issues. If you’re using a wired mouse, unplug it and plug it back in.
Solution 8: Adjust Mouse Polling Rate
If your mouse’s polling rate is too high, it may cause problems. Try setting it to 1000Hz:
- For Razer mice, open Razer Synapse, go to the Performance tab, and adjust the Polling Rate.
