Lock. Play. Stay in Control.

Cursor Lock for Windows

Your cursor does not belong on the second monitor. LockSpot is a lightweight cursor lock for Windows that keeps your mouse inside the game, app, screen, or custom desktop area you choose. No launch options. No command-line flags. No wrappers. Pick your game once, then play without accidental clicks, unwanted alt-tabs, or a pointer escaping at the worst possible moment.

A Mouse Lock Should Never Trap You. LockSpot gives you four reliable ways to release or suspend a cursor lock: hold Left Alt for a three-second soft override, press Ctrl+Alt+U to release everything instantly, open Ctrl+Alt+Del, or lock your Windows session. All six global hotkeys can be rebound or switched off.

Set It Once.

Smart Auto-Jail follows your focus. Choose a game or app once. Whenever that window is active, LockSpot automatically confines the cursor to it. Alt-tab away and the mouse lock releases; return and it applies again. Move or resize the window and the boundary follows.

Draw Your Boundary.

Turn any desktop area into a mouse zone. Draw a precise box on any screen and keep the pointer inside it, regardless of which app has focus. LockSpot supports multiple monitors, ultrawide displays, mixed-DPI layouts, saved custom zones, optional on-screen guides, and hotkey cycling.

Freeze. Step Away.

Pin the cursor without blocking your keyboard. Activate Cursor Freeze with a hotkey and LockSpot holds the pointer in place while dimming every monitor. Type your unlock phrase to release it. Your keyboard stays functional, and Windows safety shortcuts remain available.
