    I didn't really know where to ask this so I guess I'll ask here. I'm constantly switching between my Bluetooth mouse and my touch pad. But whenever I go from my mouse to the touch pad, the sensitivity is way too low, and vice versa when I go from the touch pad to my mouse. This would cause me to constantly change the sensitivity whenever I switch between the two. I was wondering if there is a way to set the sensitivity individually for my touch pad. This is a minor inconvenience so there's no problem if there isn't a way to solve this.

    Thanks!

    EDIT: Never mind. I downloaded a program called Auto Sensitivity. It changes profiles automatically which is nice.
