  1. Cursor going to second monitor while in game Windows 11


    Ive had my PC for just under a year now and have played games on it without any issues. Just recently I have ran into an issue where my mouse does not lock to the game I am playing and will go to my second monitor when I look to the side. Ive tried updating my mouse and display drivers, enabling screen lock, and manually restarting with the power button. Screen lock and a manually restarting has worked once but then the problem comes back even if i try it again. At this point im resorting to unplugging my second monitor whenever I game. Any help would be great.

    :)

  3. Cursor does not reach the second monitor

    I have a Dell notebook and a monitor connected to it. After I installed Windows 11 the cursor of the mouse doesn't move from one screen to the other. Sometimes it is stuck on the laptop and sometimes it does not go out of the monitor. The mouse settings page informs there is a corrupt or inexistent file: c: \users\<user>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Cursors\pin_eoa.cur

    the instructions suggested to fix corrupt files SFC /Scannow andDISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth didn't work.

    How can I get a clean cursor file?

    Cursor going to second monitor while in game Windows 11

    How to stop all the main screen icons moving to second monitor (Windows10) ?

    Hi,

    This can be a default when opening a game to maximize the functionality of having two monitors. To clarify the issue, we need additional information:

    • When you close the game, do the icons go back to the main display or does it stays on the second monitor?
    • Have you tried any troubleshooting steps?

    We'll keep an eye out on your response.
