Solved: 6 Years, 11 Months, 1 Week ago RE: bug mouse in the game
Problem is due to the Windows 10 FCU, i came here after fixing my problem to see if it was an already known probem, but apparently not, anyway here is the fix: https://www.gog.com/forum/amnesia_series...se_warping

Ok, ignore the above link, for some reason it got screwed up, here:
https://www.gog.com/forum/amnesia_series...se_warping

In case it dies again i'll also paste the text here:


The mouse randomly moving around making the game unplayable is due to the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update. It will likely eventually be fixed but this solution is until then.

Go to your Amnesia: The Dark Descent installation folder and find the file called "SDL.dll". Rename that file to something else so you're keeping a copy to revert back to later on.

Download this file:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/m4fuzi3hmxrmkz1/SDL.dll?dl=0

Windows will likely block the file in your downloads folder as .dll files contain code that could be malicious. If you trust the .dll then you can right-click it, choose properties, and there you will see the un-block setting. As with any file that contains code, scan it with your anti-virus.

The GOG version of Amnesia: The Dark Descent ships with SDL 1.2.14.0 which is the problematic file for the Fall Creators Update. The above file you download is SDL 1.2.13.0. Place the downloaded SDL.dll into your Amnesia: The Dark Descent folder. The same folder where you previously renamed the original SDL.dll file.

This is just a work-around. Keep the original file so you can revert the changes for the assumed time that Microsoft fixes the issue on their end.

With SDL 1.2.13.0 your mouse pointer may be trapped in the window if you try to alt-tab to your desktop. That's unfortunate but still better than not having your mouse work at all.

Here's the bug report on the SDL tracker:
