How make cursor to move between multi monitors in both directions
In the display settings, you need to drag and drop monitor 1 to position 2 ( swap them manually with the mouse, they keep their numbers but are 2 and 1 instead of 1 and 2 after) as the cables do not tell the device what stands left and which one stands on the right.
Swapping the position of the monitors solved the problem. Thank you so much for providing this solution. It also solved the problem of two monitors arranged vertically.

It did nothing. my mouse still access from right to right
Hi, I'm Rodrigo, and I will help you.
To move the mouse seamlessly between monitors, you must adjust them with no gaps in display Settings.
Go to Settings > System > Display and move/adjust the displays to achieve this according to monitor positions.
I have checked that all cables are connected correctly and fully.
Did you check that the position of the displays on Windows is aligned with their real positions? Are these monitors set to extend?
Please send a screenshot of the Display settings.
Thank you for your suggestion, but there are no gaps. They are set to extend. To be more specific: To move from, say, the left display to the right display I have to move the mouse to the left. Or to move from right to left, I have to move mouse to right. The opposite of what is normal.
I have a new Dell monitor S2725DS. I have followed its trouble shooting suggestions. No help. All cables are connected securely.
My 1 display is on the left and 2 is on the right. I need to go from left to right not left to left
@NeedyB if the mouse movement is behaving this way, invert the display positions on display settings.

Yep, that worked, thank you, Rodrigo. It's reassuring to see that I am not alone in being distracted by the cursor going in the opposite direction of the mouse!
According to your description, the monitors are swapped in Windows display settings. Like Dumba_M3 said, you must swap the display position in Windows settings to match their real positions.
