Most wireless mice are rechargeable and have a USB micro port on the front edge
You can use them wired

Is the battery cover stuck, like what happens to older mice, like mine? it sounds like it is. The recharge suggestion was a good suggestion, but sometimes wireless mice don't have that option. None of mine do. Sometimes the batteries swell with age, making it really hard to slide open the cover. Sometimes the plastic just gets stiffer with age.

What kind of wireless mouse do you have? If the bottom of the mouse has information, such as model. It is usually in very small print. :( :x I could do some research. The research would do me some good too.
