Switching tasks with Alt+Tab - mouse jumps to center of screen

[glennsnoise]

Hi. I often have multiple tasks open, and frequently toggle (task shift) back and forth between applications as part of my daily job routine. I've been moved to a new desk, and am irritated by the fact that whenever I type Alt+Tab to switch tasks (toggle), my mouse pointer immediately moves to the center of the screen. This happens every time I switch tasks using Alt+Tab. It isn't conducive to the type of work I do, and I would like to have the mouse pointer stay still instead of involuntarily jumping to the center of the screen over and over again.

I have asked Windows Support, as well as IT at my job, and no one knows how to fix this. There must be something in the preferences to change this, right?

For now see if this AutoHotkey script is any help

CoordMode, Mouse, Screen
return

~!Tab::
  MouseGetPos,X,Y
  KeyWait, Alt
  KeyWait, Tab
  MouseMove,%X%,%Y%
return

Edit: It should put the mouse to the spot it was when AltTab was pressed.
