CursorLock

If you have a multiple monitor setup, you may have issues with your mouse cursor leaving the primary display when playing certain games, which is obviously very annoying.

CursorLock is a lightweight program that provides you with a quick and efficient solution to this problem: when it detects a certain window in the foreground, it keeps the mouse cursor on the respective display until the game is shut down.

Since no installation is required, you can just launch the application as soon as you unpack the archive. Next, you need to add all the windows that should cause the program to limit cursor movements whenever they are in the foreground.

You can just enter the names of all the games or programs manually, but CursorLock can also detect them automatically and provide a convenient list for you to choose from.

Once everything has been set up, you can just minimize the application to the system tray and get on with your gaming session. When one of the listed games is opened, the program will keep your cursor on the monitor where it is active.

Of course, you may actually need to access your other monitors even while playing a game, so it certainly helps that the locker can be paused at any time by just pressing F11.

Not everyone is going to need CursorLock, but those who have issues with their mouse cursor while gaming may wish to give it a try. The application prevents the mouse pointer from moving to a secondary monitor while a game is in the foreground, and it runs quietly in the system tray.

The program is very simple to configure, as you can add all your games with very little effort, and you don’t even need to install anything on your PC before using it.
