I have a Logitech wireless mouse that does not have an on-off switch.
I bought a small velvet bag to carry this mouse (and batteries) in
after I pull the batteries out when traveling with it.

Please show me someone who removes the batteries from their travel
mouse.

A couple of alternatives before buying a new mouse.
*1 Try an old fashioned Tethered ball mouse... and one that you
know
works....
*2 Clean the mouse inside (which may invovle unscrewing it)
*3 Reinstall Windows.
BTW.. For Wireless Optical Mouse designers... how about an ON/OFF
switch please to save battery life!
Surely you don't mean that. A software auto-on (immediately when
movement sensed) and auto off (after a certain period of
inactivity) is far superior.
unless it's in your briefcase!
