About this tag
The multiple mice tag on WindowsForum covers discussions about using more than one pointing device with a single computer. A common scenario involves using a laptop's built-in trackpad alongside an external mouse, each assigned to a separate monitor in a multi-screen setup. Users seek ways to avoid constantly moving the mouse cursor between screens by dedicating one device per display. While simultaneous input is not always required, the goal is seamless switching between devices without manual configuration changes. Topics may include hardware compatibility, driver settings, and third-party software solutions for managing multiple mice in Windows.
