To all who have been having 'cursor jumps around while typing' problem. I had the same problem and had my Sony VAIO support team help me with it. They put in a fix that worked. Microsoft. It would be beneficial if you could contact Sony regarding this problem and access to the solution they put in place for me, since they seem to have found a solution to the problem.
Cursor jumps around while typing
In every application on my computer, my cursor jumps around while typing. I can not type fast because I have toconstantly bring the cursor back to where I am typing (just did it again right now). Something is wrong and needs to be fixed. I am not technical and have no idea how to fix or what forum this question belongs in. Please advise.

But now I have a new problem. My computer was blocked, a Microsoft Edge window comes up and I'm not sure it is Microsoft, phone call doesn't tell me anything. I can work around it, but who wants it there and what's going on? A ploy to get my information, control of my computer and hold it up for ransom?
Seems like you solve one computer problem and then another one crops up! Going to e-mail a friend for advice now. Hope he's more helpful this time than he was the last time. :-)

Maybe someone on here will see this and respond with a solution. Until then, I will carry on and pout over the money I spent for a product that doesn't work right. I guess I should be glad that's all I have to be unhappy about - at the moment! LOL

2018-08-30T21:24:51+00:00 Thanks, I will give this a try. I, too, would prefer just buy outright, but 365 came at a tiny price bundled with the Surface, Type Cover, and Pen … so I figured I would try it. Haven't really used much of it - other than MS Word - because of the cursor problems. Thanks for the advice.
