I've recently begun using two monitors on my Win 10/7 setups that use a
single desktop. Apparently, the standard configuration is to use a
single mouse to scroll between monitors. This works to some extent, but
is it possible to use two mice, with each mouse having control over what
appears on each monitor? Surprisingly, I found little after googling
other than this:

https://www.raymond.cc/blog/install-...d-keyboard-on-
one-computer/

Tried the software suggested there and it works, sort of.
Unfortunately, some key apps I use become buggy when using that software
to control the mice.

Any suggestions for a free equivalent that would do a better job welcomed.


I don't know of any such software, but let me ask why you would want
to do this. It sounds terribly inconvenient and awkward to me.

I was also thinking that and I've used dual-monitors for well over a
decade now.

Maybe JBI is a lot more ambidextrous than we are!

I could see another reason: if one of the windows is something requiring
precise positioning, he may not want to lose that to do general-purpose
tasks in the other window/screen. [It could be argued that (say) a
trackball would be better than a mouse for such tasks, but having two
cursors would still be needed to avoid losing one's position.]

You make it from scratch?
Yep.
Do you make your own scratch?
