Mouse Stuck at Top-Left Screen Corner

Thank you for finding the solution to this problem. It has been bugging me a lot! I just have one question. I downloaded the new file, and it comes up with two SDL files. One says SDL-Amnesia Original, and one just says SDL. Should I just copy the SDL without the Amnesia Original in its name? Or should I copy the Amnesia Original one?

copy the bare SDL.dll file. The one named original is for backup purposes...

Instead of downloading, just use Ctrl+Alt+Delete.

It won't work. I know that 100%. As soon as you go to desktop the mouse will freeze again. Just download the file and you won't have any problems(except the small one I wrote above).

Godammit, atleast on windows 7 you press ctrl-alt-delete and use your keyboard to guide around, ive done this several times

I just bought this game and here's what worked for me, right click on the game's shortcut click properties, then click compatibilities, then check the box " disable display scaling on high dpi settings "

I have done everything listed in this thread to try and solve my problem.. And not one thing did anything, I thought this would solve it, but I have the same problem as Zeppelin. The mouse works perfectly fine, everything loads up, I can move it all over during the beginning messages, click continue etc. It goes into the loading screen, and the Create Profile screen comes up, and it just will not move at all.. I can't do anything, I've tried switching it to Windowed Mode, and I still have the same problem, the mouse won't move a damn inch. I've replaced the SDL, changed settings, everything. Any suggestions?

Update: The latest SDL.dll v1.2.15 includes a Windows fix that says:

Fixed application state handling with ALT-Tab

It works flawlessly. I tested it with Amnesia TDD Demo. Also because this is a proper fix there are no more temporary freezes that could be caused by v1.2.13 (alt-tabbing in and out again always fixed them but still, nice to see them gone).

Just gave it a run and it works awesomely. Thanks a ton for this, Pluto! :D

Yes it does, this is especially helpful when creating custom stories and stuff.

I couldn't delete the previous version, look at how many downloads it has! I just couldn't...

so you can fix when you press CTRL+ALT+DELETE and press ALT+TAB much times are your Windows tabs opened (sorry for my bad english)
