Windows 10: It might help you !! Problem cursor activity on Surface Pro 3 ..

After many months of frustration with the above problem, I've been able to remedy my problem ..

After viewing the Device Manager in my Surface Pro 3, I found "double" (identical) entries under "Mice and other Pointing Devices"
What caused it I do not know and I was unable to delete either as it was simply restored after a reboot.

My remedy was merely to "disable" one of the HID Compliant Mouse drivers .. Simple .. but works for me !

Good luck if it helps you ..

Surface Pro 3/Windows 10 cursor problem

I have a strange problem that just recently started to occur on my Surface Pro 3 (Windows 10). I think it started after an update put out in November.

If I'm navigating between open windows (using Alt+tab), if the cursor is not already positioned where the window is that I want to navigate to, it doesn't navigate to that window.

Also, if I click on a shortcut icon on the taskbar, as soon as I move the cursor to select something on the list for that shortcut, the list disappears.

I hope this makes sense! Very hard to explain in words. Any help is appreciated
