I am running Windows 11, but this was happening with Windows 10. It seems to happen when One Drive Business is synchronizing. My mouse will focus in the upper left hand corner. It doesn't matter what application I'm using (i.e. Chrome, Word, Edge, etc.), the mouse will on focus on what I'm typing and move the focus to the upper right corner. This is very frustrating. Either way, anyone else experiencing this and if so, have you been able to fix it? If so, what worked?

    Disable Touchpad and recheck.

    Hi @James Bailey ,
    Did this problem only appear in OneDrive app? How about other applications?
    Did you enable any antivirus software?
    I suggest you try to disable antivirus software and firewall in PC, then check if you can sync OneDrive without problem.
    Or you can try to remove the keyboard when sync OneDrive.
    Try these methods and check if the information is helpful, any updates please let me know and I'm glad to help you.
