Multi-screen corner madness. Cannot move the mousepointer to the next screen.

Dear Microsoft. The mouse-pointer is incapable of transitioning from one screen to another through any and all corners.

Why this "feature" even exists is beyond the scope of my intelligence and patience.

Every normal human being has shifted their monitor-space up a few pixels so that this corner you guys *force* upon us isn't needed.

We only need 1 corner ever to have this feature, that's a corner where the full-screen windowed X appears. Guess where that is.

The other 3 corners uselessly have this feature forced upon them. Nobody wants the mouse to snap from right to left or on the bottom of the screen.

NOBODY.

Can we please get an option to disable this ungodly feature, and I am on my literal knees here, begging to my pc overlords, you, Microsoft.

Thanks in advance.

-edit:

  1. Disabling/enabling the Multi-tasking option and disabling Snap, still stops the mouse from leaving screens through corners, so please don't suggest that.
  2. Restarting the pc has been done.
  3. Sitting through endless pages of this exact problem, and seeing answers that do not line up with the question, has been done.

    I am unable to move the mousepointer to the next screen through any and all corners of the monitors. The mousepointer will be halted at every corner.

    Personally I've used Multi-monitors in extended mode since win 7 and I'm afraid I must be dumb as I cannot for the life of me work out what you refer to or what the problem is.
