    Cursor moves to the left by itself while typing


    I've windows 10 and in the recent past, my keyboard and mouse cursor is acting crazy. Like when I use keys such as backspace, number keys above the letters number pad while typing cursor automatically jumps to the left and it is really frustrating when I'm writing an email.


    Need Help!


    I tried solutions like a mouse and keyboard driver update/disable/enable.

    checked mouse settings,windows updates, malware scan but nothing has worked.

    :)

    Fix for cursor moving to left?

    What is the fix for the cursor moving to the left? Upon first signing in to Windows 10 I type the first letter of my password and the cursor moves to the left. I have to delete the first letter and start my user name
    again and then the cursor behaves normally. This also occasionally happens when typing a document or typing something into "search". I type the first letter, the cursor moves to the left and I have to delete the first letter and retype.
