    Moving cursor to second monitor using only the keyboard


    I want to move the cursor to my other monitor without looking at the screen. In other words, without knowing where on the first screen the cursor is.

    I understand now, there is no built-in shortcuts to move the mouse cursor between monitors in Windows

    Moving cursor to second monitor using only the keyboard

    Cursor does not reach the second monitor

    I have a Dell notebook and a monitor connected to it. After I installed Windows 11 the cursor of the mouse doesn't move from one screen to the other. Sometimes it is stuck on the laptop and sometimes it does not go out of the monitor. The mouse settings page informs there is a corrupt or inexistent file: c: \users\<user>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Cursors\pin_eoa.cur

    the instructions suggested to fix corrupt files SFC /Scannow andDISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth didn't work.

    How can I get a clean cursor file?
