Thank you for the amazing library, when Using the library its able to detect every device except the mouse I really don’t know why. I was hoping to create something like this but for windows >(https://www.orangecoat.com/how-to/read-and-decode-data-from-your-mouse-using-this-pyusb-hack) also was wondering if you could help me out

Sorry, that's a limitation. Mice and Keyboards are system input devices you need a kernel driver helper, pyusb and others implement USB filters that allow to capture any device.

The pywinusb uses only application level APIs, which restrict access to system devices.

So it is not supported.
