Multiplicity bug

from Stardock Forums

Laggy mouse cursor on secondary computer when fake mouse support in the settings on the secondary computer is active as of the last windows 10 update.  I had to disable the fake mouse support on the secondary computer and it went away.  This is a loss of functionality from last windows 10 update.

To be more accurate describing the issue I'm seeing: the problem presented as a second mouse cursor that stayed stationary for a second and then disappeared (like a snapshot of the cursor) where it was about every second.  It didn't affect functionality, just super distracting and annoyingly obvious that something looks wrong.

I found the fix here:

When I enable fake pointer support, my mouse doesn't click inside a game I am playing. Without it, there is no cursor, with it I cant click inside the game.. Ideas?
