  1. Windows 10 Mouse lock to one application


    Hi,I have noticed an issue recently relating to a double-screen setup I have at home. On boot up of the computer and during general use, the mouse will only be able to send inputs onto one application. The mouse is able to move across both screens, it's just input is blocked. The way I have been able to "overcome" is by doing the CNTRL + ALT + DELETE when it happens and it happens often and then clicking the cancel option which allows me to use the mouse normally on any applications I have open. What I do notice is that on some applications such as games where the mouse icon is changed, if t

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

    Mouse cursor not locked to crosshair in UWP applications

    My mouse cursor isn't locked to my crosshair when I'm unpaused from Minecraft or other apps. I've tried reinstalling and resetting Minecraft, no good. Restarting my PC, no good.

    Resetting UWP apps through Powershell seems to not work either;
    HTML Code:
    Here's a short demonstration of the bug:

    Such a mind boggling issue. Can't find a solution for this problem even on the internet.

    Things I've tried that provided no solution:

    • Resetting/Uninstalling Minecraft
    • Reinstalling UWP apps to their defaults.
    • Shutdown/Restarting my PC.
    • Repairing my computer with SFC and DISM
    • Repairing my PC with Windows Media Installation Tool (Upgrade PC Keep Files Option)
    • Uninstalling/Reinstalling my mouse drivers.
    I have tried recovering from a restore point and it seemed to fix the issue temporarily but the issue returned.
