Mouse Jiggler

Mouse Jiggler is a very simple piece of software whose sole function is to “fake” mouse input to Windows PC and jiggle the mouse pointer back and forth. Mouse Jiggler is a free product provided without warranty or support.

Useful for avoiding desktop screensavers or other things triggered by idle detection that, for whatever reason, you can’t turn off any other way; or as a quick way to stop a screensaver activating during an installation or when monitoring a long operation without actually having to muck about with the screensaver settings.

Simply run the MouseJiggle.exe included in the release .zip file. Check the “Enable jiggle?” checkbox to start jiggling the mouse pointer; uncheck it to stop. The jiggle is slight enough that you should be able to use the computer normally even with jiggling enabled.

Operation

  • The ‘Zen jiggle?’ checkbox enables a mode in which the pointer is jiggled ‘virtually’ – the system believes it to be moving and thus screen saver activation, etc., is prevented, but the pointer does not actually move.
  • To minimize Mouse Jiggler to the system tray, click the button marked with a green, down-pointing arrow.
  • If you want to start the MouseJiggler with jiggling already enabled, run the MouseJiggle.exe with either the -j or –jiggle command-line switch.
  • The “-z” / “–zen” command-line switch forces zen jiggling to be enabled for the current (and future) invocations of MouseJiggler.
  • (Added in 1.5+): The “-m” / “–minimized” command-like switch tells MouseJiggler to start already minimized.

Mouse Jiggler is a tiny piece of software designed to simulate small movements of the mouse and hence, prevent screensavers from popping up. The Jiggler comes in two varieties, the fast version (your mouse overdosed on bennies) and the slow version (very serious business), which uses nearly imperceptible motions of the pointer to allow.

Jiggler just wiggles your mouse every once in a while, keeping your machine awake and happy. When you want to stay awake, run it. When you don't want to, quit it. You can even run it while you're working, because you can set it not to wiggle your mouse unless your computer has been sitting idle for a while. Or you can configure. Keep Your Computer Awake With a Cup: This is a really handy tip for wanting to keep your computer awake or keep grooveshark playing, using a cup. Laser mice only.  I don't use this hack myself, my desk is glass and causes this effect anyway, plus the mouse wets itsel. Mouse Jiggler Alternatives. Mouse Jiggler is described as 'very simple piece of software whose sole function is to 'fake' mouse input to Windows, and jiggle the mouse pointer back and forth' and is an app in the OS & Utilities category. There are five alternatives to Mouse Jiggler for Windows and Android.

The hardware-based Mouse Jiggler prevents your computer from going to sleep while you work or play. This plug-and-use USB device comes in three versions and creates constant mouse activity so your computer won't go idle and trigger screen savers or sleep mode—eliminating the need to log in repeatedly.

Use the MJ-3 for:

Mouse Jiggler C#

  • Giving a presentation
  • Playing a game like Minecraft
  • Uploading or downloading files, copying drives, or installing updates and programs onto your computer
  • And more!

The MJ-3 is programmable, making it ideal for repetitive IT or gaming tasks. You can create customized scripts with programmed mouse movement, mouse clicks, and keystrokes. The smaller size of the MJ-3 keeps it out of the way and is unobtrusive when installed.

Mouse Jiggler's small size makes it easy to carry and keeps it out of the way while you work. At roughly the size of a dime – 0.75' x 0.55' x 0.25' (18mm x 14mm x 6mm) – the MJ-3 slips into any pocket. Mouse Jiggler appears as a USB mouse to the host computer it’s plugged into—and its presence and use will be logged by some operating systems. Mouse Jiggler should be used only in compliance with applicable workplace IT policies.

Mouse

Presenters use Mouse Jiggler because it allows them to present without the screensaver popping up in the middle of the presentation. Employees who are unable to change their system sleep settings or install unapproved software on their computers find Mouse Jiggler convenient to keep screen savers or login screens from activating.

IT professionals use the Mouse Jiggler to prevent password dialog boxes due to screensavers or sleep mode after an employee is terminated and they need to maintain access to their computer.

Computer forensic investigators use Mouse Jigglers to prevent password dialog boxes from appearing due to screensavers or sleep mode. With many computer hard drives now employing full-disk encryption, such modes can greatly increase the time and cost of a forensic investigation. When combined with a WiebeTech HotPlug™, investigators can transport a running computer without shutting it down or worrying about logging in.

Mouse Jiggler

Whether you're a forensic investigator, technician, or IT professional, the CRU WiebeTech Mouse Jiggler is a useful tool.
