Windows 10: Cursor Not Locking On Games.

My Cursor wont lock on games anymore. it used to before, but now it will not anymore. I have seen other people have similar issues, but they have 2 monitors, im on a laptop with a wireless mouse. for example, on Minecraft, when i play it usually locks while im on it as Minecraft is a first person game. but now, whenever i move my camera/head in Minecraft, my cursor will move too, causing it to sometimes to out of Minecraft, and onto my task bar at the bottom of my screen, making me exit and have to press resume all over again. ive looked in settings, to see if i may have accidentally changed s

Mouse Cursor not locking in Games

Hello Jabron,

Thank you for posting your concern in Microsoft Community and welcome to the windows 10 Family.

We appreciate the time and effort you have put in to resolve the issue. I would like to assist you with further information from here.

Sometimes with a multiple monitor setup when you move your mouse from left to right inside the game the mouse can leave the game and move to a different monitor. If while your mouse is on the other screen you click (thinking you are still in the game) it
can alt + tab you out of the game and in some cases crash it.

As an initial recommendation, I would suggest you to define a Keyboard Shortcut to Lock or Unlock Mouse Movements to the Monitor with Mouse Cursor. Once Mouse is Locked to one Monitor, you will not be able to move the Mouse Cursor to any other Monitor unless
you Unlock Mouse by pressing the Keyboard Shortcut again

Hope the above information was helpful. If you need further information, feel free to write to us and we would be happy to help you.

Thank You.
