Windows 10: [Help] Cursor snaps/sticks all the time

On my Windows 10 PC my cursor recently started snapping above folders in Windows explorer and some other elements in other programs. My cursor won't move unless I drag my mouse a considerable distance. Then my cursor behaves normally again. If I go with my cursor to the place it got stuck in, it will get stuck again. This leads me to believe this is a Windows problem.

Solutions I tried:

• 
  Disabling all superfluous mouse drivers and reinstalling the neccessary one in the device manager
  
  
• 
  Reinstalling drivers from my mouse's manufacturer
  
  
• 
  Checking all settings are normal in the mouse settings (main.cpl)

Windows 10 - Mouse cursor sticks to edge between multiple monitors

I did get a suggestion that worked: Open the Display settings, use you mouse to drag either the leftmost or right most monitor icon (I have two monitors and a laptop, which is the center monitor) away from the center monitor icon, then release. That forces
the icon to 'snap back' to the center monitor icon. The cursor stops sticking after you do that. If I disconnect the laptop to travel, etc., the problem sometimes reoccurs but is corrected by just repeating the steps. .

 

Cursor snapping to display edges, btween two monitors

Hi Vincekiss I would suggest you to try configuring multiple monitors and check if the issue is fixed.

Refer to the following Microsoft Help article to configure multiple monitors. The steps for Windows 8/Windows 8.1 applies to Windows 10 as well.

Another way to fix is to go into settings, system, multitasking and disable snap... However this disables it completely.
