About this tag
Synergy is a software KVM solution that allows users to control multiple computers with a single mouse and keyboard, moving seamlessly between screens as if they were one large desktop. It supports cross-platform use, including Windows, macOS, and Linux, and also merges clipboards and synchronizes screen savers across systems. On WindowsForum.com, users discuss using Synergy to share input devices between PCs, often in multi-OS setups or when troubleshooting network connectivity issues that affect its operation. Some threads note that PowerToys' Mouse Without Borders feature can serve as a free alternative to Synergy for Windows-only environments, though Synergy remains popular for mixed-OS desks.
