    Hi @sammireid16 - Usually, if the mouse stops working on one portion of the screen it's because there's a notification underneath the game window waiting for a response. Try alt-tab to the desktop to see any notifications. You should be able to get rid of the problem by turning on focus assist. Go to Settings > System > Focus Assist (on the left hand bar). At the bottom of the settings, turn on "When I'm Playing a Game". Hope this helps!
