  1. Can we move mouse cursor with keyboard arrow keys?


    Windows mouse keys let you move mouse cursor with keyboard numeric keypads but the problem is I dont have numeric keypads on my laptop so it will be best to use up,down,left,right arrows to move mouse cursor.

  2. Arrow keys moving mouse cursor

    My keyboard is moving my mouse cursor again, from the arrow keys. I checked in the settings and turned off, again, the setting that makes the num keys move the mouse, but the arrow keys are still doing it. I just want to turn this off. this is not
    the first time it has happened and I can never remember how I managed to make it stop the previous times. I do remember that sometimes it just stops after i mess around for 2 hours trying to make it stop, or by unplugging and replugging my mouse. I just want
    it to stop.

    Mouse Cursor Keeps Disappearing? hard to tell what I am doing

    Hi, Last

    My name is Milagros, Independent Advisor

    If your mouse pointer or cursor disappears or has gone misisng on your Windows 10 PC then if you earlier enabled the Show location of pointer when I press Ctrl key option, then you may press the CTRL key to make te pointer appear. ... Open Control Panel > Mouse
    > Pointer Options

    Solution 1. Use Windows Function Keys to Get the Disappearing Cursor Back in Windows 10

    The installation of Windows 10 may disable the function of your mouse cursor, causing the mouse pointer missing on Windows 10. If that’s the case, it could be possibly resolved by pressing the Windows function keys on your keyboard.

    Depending on your keyboard and mouse model, the Windows keys you should hit are varying from one to another. Thus you may try the following combinations to make your disappearing cursor back to visible in Windows 10: Fn + F3 / Fn + F5 / Fn + F9 / Fn + F11.

    If using the Fn keys to retrieve the missing cursor doesn’t work for bringing the mouse cursor back, there could be some errors with your mouse driver in Windows 10. Since upgrading Windows OS sometimes leads to driver or software compatibility issue. To fit
    Windows 10 with the compatible mouse drivers, you might as well roll back your mouse driver or update it.

    Solution 2. Update the Mouse Driver to Fix the Missing Cursor in Windows 10

    Step 1. Press Windows + R keys altogether to bring out the Run box.

    Step 2. Type devmgmt.msc and then hit Enter to open Device Manager

    Step 3. Press Tab to switch to devices list.

    Step 4. Use arrow keys to scroll down to Mice and other pointing devices and use the right arrow key to expand it.

    Step 5. Use the down arrow key to select your mouse device.

    Step 6. Press Shift + F10 open the context menu.

    Step 7. Choose Update driver with arrow keys and hit Enter.

    Step 8. Follow the on-screen installation instructions to finish the updates and then check whether the lost cursor or mouse not working issue persists on your Windows 10 laptop or desktop PC.

    Good luck..
