    Mouse pointer is bigger to the slave PC


    Hi i am running Mouse Without Boarders AKA on Windows 10 to my both PC. I have a set up of 2 screens. My left is the slave and right master. So when i move from the the master to slave the mouse pointer becomes bigger. I checked all settings inside Windows 10. When i move from slave to master the pointer has the correct size. I tried to insert a usb mouse to the slave machine and the pointer changed to the right size even if i move it from the master set up. Just it feels the connection of a physical mouse the the shape changes to the correct one.


    How can i fix this problem?


    Thank you,

    Angelos

    :)

  2. Mouse Pointer

    Hi,

    You can customize your mouse in a variety of ways in Windows. To change how your mouse pointer looks, you can follow the steps below:

    • Right-click on the Start menu, then click Control Panel.
    • Select Mouse, then go to the Pointers tab.
    • Select the pointer you prefer from the drop-down list, click
      Apply > OK.

    If you want to use a pointer that is not on the list, you can download it online. After that, go to Control Panel > Mouse > Pointers tab again, then click
    Browse.

    Update us if it addressed your issue.

    Very concerning indeed. As a first step I would want to know how you are magnifying your mouse pointer. I assume you are going to Settings, Ease of Access, Mouse, and from there you are changing the pointer size.

    I followed these steps and I was able to make my mouse pointer larger. So I know it works for some PCs. Just not yours.

    Normally I suggest updated mouse drivers but in your case you already tried a different mouse so I would go in a different direction to troubleshoot your issue. First I would clean boot your PC. See if that step resolves your issue.

    Clean boot your PC

    How to perform a clean boot in Windows: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/929135

    Note: The steps apply for Windows 10 as well.

    The goal of this step is to see if some other software is running on your PC that conflicts with your mouse. If this step resolves the issue the goal is to try to find the software that is conflicting and disable it, remove it, or update it so it no longer
    conflicts. Don't forget to reverse the steps of the clean boot when you are done trying this step.
