    Cursor jumping to left and opening new screens


    I am at wits' end and am ready to scream. For months now, my cursor randomly shoots left or down and opens files/windows/apps or generally disrupts what I am working on for no reason. It has gotten so bad lately that I can hardly function. It will constantly jump when I am trying to type an email in the Xfinity website or work on a company file in QuickBooks; so much so that I have to go back to where I left off several times a minute! Even while typing this it has jumped to other areas of the screen a few times already and I have to place the cursor back in the dialog box. I've tried all

    :)

    Cursor jumping to top left corner.

    I have an HP laptop model 16-ay191ms with Windows 10 build 17134.345 which I cannot use while unplugged. The PC has always had a problem with the cursor jumping to the top right of the screen at random times, but I thought I cured it. Today, while it was
    unplugged, the battery saver was turned on and notifications started popping up at random times and the cursor automatically jumped to the notification. I use a wireless mouse, Anker TM156g, and all the correct drivers have been installed. This was driving
    me crazy. I don't know what to do. Any site that has info on cursor jumping suggest a new driver but that doesn't work. Any help will be appreciated.

  3. My cursor keeps jumping to the top left side of my computer screen.

    As said above, my cursor keeps jumping to the top left of my screen clicking whatever is there. (Ex: I'm in google and it jumps to the first tab open) The jumping gets more frequent as i use my computer more. It'a extremely annoying. Please help.

    Cursor jumping to left upper corner of screen

    SOLVED !! (Finally)

    One of my 3 monitors is a touch screen (Viewsonic TD2420) and for some reason the upper left corner keeps triggering the cursor to jump to that spot. Unplugging the USB cable to that monitor has solved the problem.

    Thank you everyone for your help.
