I downloaded the driver from the provided link.
I used filescan.io to scan it and found a relevant result.
The file is available on virustotal for analysis.
I’m just starting with computer accessories, thank you.

Drivers should be acquired directly from the hardware manufacturer.

As per the link you referenced, I wouldn't have it in any system I had access to or interacted with.
What's the question about the "driver"?

Go to your mouse manufacturer website and look for drivers that match your mouse.
Getting drivers ANYWHERE ELSE is a recipe for trouble.!! Chances of getting a virus or malware there are 100%!!
