    Mouse select where pointer rest


    Hi...I am getting sooo frustrated with my USB mouse on my Laptop.


    If there is more than a few second pause the mouse will select or move the "insert txt point" to where the pointer was last clicked or is resting.


    I have set checked that the "Snap to" is not checked, and have disabled the "auto select when hovering" in registry by setting the

    the pointer hover width and height to zero, but ist still doing the same thing.


    Any advice how to solved this will be greatly appreciated.

    :)

  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.

    The Mouse Pointer (THE OLD ONE?)

    Hi Amir,

    Are you using an external mouse or the touch pad mouse? You can change the way how your mouse pointer looks by following these steps:

    1. Press Windows key on your keyboard, type Change your mouse settings and select the search result.
    2. On the window that would appear, click Additional mouse options.
    3. On the Pointers tab, under Scheme, click
      Windows Default (system scheme)
      on the drop-down menu.

    Let me know if there are improvements.
