    Cursor lagging on my desktop

    Hi Charlie,

    To help you with your concern, we'd like to suggest checking if there are unwanted applications running in the background. To check this, follow these steps below:

    • Right-click on your Start Menu button on the Taskbar.
    • Click Task Manager
    • Under Processes, close any applications that are running in the background that are consuming resources on your laptop. Select the program and then click
      End Task.
    • Next click the Details tab, choose the program that is consuming a lot of memory on your computer and then press
      End Task.
    • Check if the cursor is responding slowly.

    Let us know if you need further assistance.
