Question How can I find and restart mouse-related programs that got closed during an interrupted computer shutdown?
I interrupted a computer shutdown and as a result the mouse cursor is moving much more slowly and the cursor has become smaller. I assume some mouse-related programs got closed: how can I find them and restart them? I use Windows 11 24H2 Pro. Crossposts: - https://superuser.com/q/1893394/...

Very strange: I don't see what could cause "Run" to disappear from the option in the run/debug config window. It's back now: Imagealttext ...

Comment Post #293675 @#64277 I think you're right (though still a useful answer if it works often enough, for some use cases). I've just checked the API too.
