Windows 10: Mouse wont lock on ANY Fullscreen game/application.

Whenever I launch a game like Fortnite or Minecraft, I load in and my mouse is not locked to my monitor. When I move my mouse to the left it goes on to my second monitor. This makes games pretty much unplayable to the point where i ended up unplugging my second monitor just to play a game. I already tried uninstalling other updates and anything I could find online. No one has been having the same problem as me.

mouse wont lock on dual monitor setup in some games


hello tenforums so ive recently setup a secondary monitor, but the mouse simply wont lock into the screen where the game is being played (total war) and if i do end up clicking somewhere on the secondary monitor the game will be minimized which is bothersome, anyone know a fix of sort to this? and ye i have tried borderless and fullscreen but in vain.




another issue ive had is that the secondary screen (1600x900) gets some flicker/lines whenever i use vga to connect it, but it works superb with dvi, any idea as to why?


now another thing is that when i move the mouse/cursor from the top right corner of the main monitor(1920x1080) it wont switch over to the secondary one(my idea being that the res/size is diffrent)

"Scroll Inactive Window" does not respect Fullscreen application in multi-monitor config

when "Scroll Inactive Window" (settings > devices > mouse/touchpad > Scroll Inactive Window when I hover over them) is active it performs inconstantly with fullscreen applications, and the way the mouse performs otherwise with an application in Fullscreen
display mode. the feature works fine otherwise, but this side effect makes it frustrating.

for productivity this feels functional, and fluid. this mostly impacts things like games, but it still does not feel intended, or consisted with what Fullscreen is supposed to entail, or what things are actually constrained.

expected: in fullscreen mode the mouse is supposed to be completely constrained to the given screen/monitor, and all interactions of the mouse are expected to only interact with the window the mouse is locked to. for the most part this is why borderless-fullscreen
(or fullscreen borderless windowed mode) was implemented to have a program appear like fullscreen, but allow the mouse to behave like windowed mode.

issue: when running a fullscreen application like a game with "Scroll Inactive Window..." active, and using the mouse in the program, if the mouse would logically leave the fullscreen application "Scroll Inactive Window" will function even though any other
button of the mouse will do nothing, and with the logical position of the mouse being invisible to the user. this occurs with most any fullscreen application, and impacts multi monitor configurations.

example: having a program running in fullscreen mode (most prevalent in games), with a youtube video (could be a text document/webpage), and have the mouse logically leave the fullscreen application (if left monitor is non-primary then run mouse to the left)
then use scroll wheel. this is inconstant as clicks and secondary buttons do not function.

can this feature either respect fullscreen display mode, or maybe have a sub toggle for "use Fullscreen mouse lock"
