I have been using Windows since January 2021, but for last 1-2 months, I am facing a strange issue. Whenever I work on my laptop my mouse goes busy on a specific area on the screen. I am not able to figure out how to fix this. I resetted my pc, reinstalled mouse drivers but still I am facing this issue. But when I restart my laptop it gets fix but after some time it again happens. Could anyone help me to figure out way through this problem? I am on Windows 11 build 22000.348. I am in Windows Insider Beta Programme. Please
help me fix this.... Thanks

    I have found a temporary fix: Using the Task Manager, kill the background process named "Windows Input Experience". The problem will come back at the next reboot.

    Windows 11 Pro. Version 10.0.22000 Build 22000

    It would be nice to have a fix to this annoying bug.

    I Have the exact same problem, whenever the mouse goes in that screen region (see slightly shaded area inside highlight), the mouse pointer turns into a spinning busy wheel. Nothing can be clicked in that area. This is a clean work machine with nothing customized in here.

    Yesterday, I booted Windows into the recovery mode and told it to undo the last windows "quality" update. Yes, Windows still lists the November cumulative one as being in place, but lo and behold, the problem is gone. I've been using the machine a lot and zero issues now.

    It's not even just the bottom of the screen per se -- it's a rectangular zone down there

    Really - this is just a normal install using a static background wallpaper and no UI enhancements other than Windows powertoys (see vid)
