Mouse lock

[Terratrox]

Before, the game would lock the mouse to the window, so I wouldn't be clicking all the icons on my second monitor and losing focus on the game. But now it doesn't. Is there a way to put it back the way it was?

I don't know, but I'd like to know because outside of full screen mode, the game is not playable due to the mouse not being bounded by the game if you are using windowed mode. This means that you will be constantly be clicking outside of the game window and blocking the game window constantly with other windows. This is likely a game bug anyone who doesn't play in Fullscreen or max windowed mode will ever notice.

Some games manage to keep the mouse bounded to the game window in windowed mode. This doesn't appear to be one of them at the moment.

Try this

I'd try that, but I only run a single monitor system. I tried Cursor-lock, but Warframe doesn't work with it and acts like a borderless game. Cursor-lock does work with browsers and other programs with defined window borders, but not with games that act like borderless windows like Warframe, and the dual monitor program doesn't seem useful for single monitor setups.

Perhaps this one will work

Locks your mouse either to a game window, or a monitor so it still can work on a single monito setup

That doesn't work with Warframe because Warframe acts like a borderless window, at least in Win10.

If you haven't tried it then how can you know it doesn't work? Borderless window is almost exactly the same as simple windowed mode.

I'd already downloaded it by the time you mentioned it and it was only working with some window like my browsers, but not games like Crossout, Paladins, Warframe etc. The problem turns out to be Windows 10 requires some utilities to be run "as Administrator" for reasons only MS knows.

I'd mentioned trying Cursor-lock in a previous post, I just hadn't thought of running the short-cut itself "as Administrator". I probably should have thought of that since a macro-program I have also requires being run "as Administrator" and Steam does to get the overlay to work in one of my games. It's a Win10 centric issue I think.
