Windows uses Mouclass as the class driver for all mouse devices installed in a system. The Windows Win32 subsystem opens all mouse devices for its exclusive use. Applications cannot open the mouse devices opened by Mouclass.

Mouclass can work in combination with an optional upper-level mouse filter driver for a PS/2-style mouse device. Moufiltr, a sample upper-level mouse filter driver in the MSDN Code Gallery, can be used to customize the operation of a mouse device.

For more information about Mouclass, see the following:

  • The ntddkbd.h WDK header file

Note   Mouclass supports legacy devices and Plug and Play devices. When appropriate, this material distinguishes between the operation of Mouclass for a legacy device and a Plug and Play device. If no distinction is made, the description applies to both legacy and Plug and Play devices.
