By following these steps, you should be able to unlock the cursor on your Windows device. The specific steps may vary slightly depending on the version of Windows you are using.
I remember a situation where I encountered a similar issue with a friend’s laptop. The cursor was locked, and they were unable to move it. After trying a few troubleshooting steps, we found that disabling the touchpad temporarily solved the problem. It allowed us to use an external mouse instead. This workaround was helpful until we were able to fix the touchpad issue permanently.
It’s important to note that the touchpad settings may differ depending on the specific device and its manufacturer. If you are unable to find the Touchpad settings in the Devices menu, you can try looking for it in the Control Panel or consult the device’s user manual for further guidance.
Unlocking the cursor on a Windows device can be done by accessing the Touchpad settings in the Devices menu of the Settings app and toggling off the Touchpad option.
