Cursor to top right angle

[pkaragenov]

Hello to everybody!
I'm having a little problem with my DELL laptop.When I click the right button the cursor goes to the top right angle of the screen and stays there for some time and when I try to move it it glides back to the top right angle.Can you tell me why is that and what to do?

not sure why is that, check for malware

also, in menus, there's a windows option in mouse settings that tells windows to move your mouse cursor to default choice location, turn that off.

Unforunately, it is turned off.

You may have the wrong driver loaded for your device; or are you using both mouse AND touchpad? My old Inspiron laptop turned its touchpad off if I plugged in a mouse, make sure yours is doing that.

Does this happen immediately, or after the laptop has heated up?

 

[pkaragenov]

I'm using only touchpad and yes - it happens immediately.

 

[AntiZig]

have you updated the drivers for the touch pad?

 

[pkaragenov]

I thought of that.Maybe I should try, thanks!

I've seen that happen on a lot of Dell Latitude C series laptops. If pressing on the palm rest near the touchpad has the same effect, then the touchpad needs replaced.

yeah quite true, it might as well be a hardware problem
