BGforever Posted November 4, 2022 Report Share Posted November 4, 2022 I have 2 monitors, one of them is a touchscreen, the other is not. I want to be able to use my mouse on one monitor and have a separate touchscreen where I can use touch to control other software. The problem is, if I use the touchscreen then it steals my mouse pointer and moves it there. What I want is for the mouse to stay on the desktop and not get moved to the touchscreen whenever I press it. I've looked in Windows settings, all the touch stuff on Windows 11. No sign of any fix for this. Does anyone know what to do to get this working? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belatucadrus Posted November 5, 2022 Report Share Posted November 5, 2022 I don't think it's possible just using windows, however there are several software packages that will allow two mice and maybe a mouse and a touchscreen. Here are links to some options I have never used any of them so can't recommend or warn on potential pitfalls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BGforever Posted January 16, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2023 Hi thanks very much for the link. I tried some of the softwares mentioned with no luck until I saw 'Touch Mouse Tools' mentioned in the comments. This, it turns out, was the precise solution to my seemingly rather unique problem. Good to know I'm not the only person who set up my system this way :)- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
