I only find this an issue with crappy low DPI mice. All of mine have DPIs high enough that edge to edge across 3 screens can be done in a few inches of horizontal travel.
Unlike another commenter in the thread, I don't use any acceleration features; just a fixed high DPI rate. The changing wrist to screen movement rate from acceleration implementations always made it much harder for me to control exactly where my cursor stopped without deliberately slowing down at the end of the movement to drop back into slow mode.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I had problems when the monitors are not the same size. Scrolling could be a problem and the PC uses the least resolution if the monitors are different, e.g., it uses the laptop settings for all monitors. Using setting for a 14" screen on 27" monitors is far from optimal.
My current setup has 2 large monitors positioned side-by-side, and I keep the laptop closed in a docking station.

Passed the link to this off to a coworker who struggles with multiple monitors.

Me: Three huge monitors = 1 swipe across all of them = Cursor Speed = Max
You need to used to it.
Instructions here, jump to How to change mouse speed using Settings. Link[^]

I think you can solve this pretty easily within Windows:
1) Go to 'Mouse' settings.
2) Set the 'Cursor speed' in the middle. You can come back and change it later.
3) On the right side of this window select 'Additional Mouse Options'.
4) A window named 'Mouse Properties' should appear. There's a lot you can do here.
5) Select 'Buttons'. Be sure that your mouse is selected on the right side.
6) Click on the 'Pointer Options' Tab.
7) At the top is a box named 'Motion'.
8) 'Select a pointer speed' is the same as 'Cursor Speed' in the previous window - no need to change it.
9) Check the 'Enhance Pointer Precision' box. This actually controls whether the pointer will accelerate the faster you try to move your mouse - my mouse feels dead without it. So, this sounds like the setting you really need.
HTH!

Sorry guys I completly forgot about the CCC - my mother was recently moved into a home and I have some last minute things to attend to like clearing her house - she lived there for 50+ years so you can imagine how much stuff there was - so I've been preoccupied with that - also my alarm ( OG ) didn't go off early enough

Taking care of your ailing mother over creating a puzzle for a bunch of internet acquaintances?
Where are your priorities?
Seriously, take good care of mom. I'm sure that was a hard decision.
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.

Never a nice job - I had to do it for my mother after she passed, and it was remarkable what we found.

Fortunately she hasn't passed yet - the house is clear except for one item - I bought her one of those all singing and dancing electric reclining / helps you in and out of it chairs last year ( ~ £1500 ) which she never even sat on once - it is absolutely like new and I'm loathe to chuck it but I don't have room for it - I'm looking at my options one of which is putting it into storage and trying to sell it, but even that's difficult in these strange times.

Quote: I bought her one of those all singing and dancing electric reclining / helps you in and out of it chairs last year ( ~ £1500 ) which she never even sat on once I did that for my mother in law last year when she stayed with us, with the same results. Fortunately, we had the room, and now it's mine. Best wishes to you and your family, tough times indeed.

Gumtree?
Facebook marketplace?
Gawd forbid: eBay?
Buyer collects: you won't get all the money back, but it's better than taking it to the tip (when they reopen, no idea when that is).

Would the home she went to might want it, if not for her for other residents who might like it?

not really... that's part of the QA tests of the site by testing if the notifications counter overflow brings issues.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you

At last, one I can understand.
If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

But can you solve it, because I can't ...
