havCurCtr Released and Projects Page Update

August 24, 2025

You know when you're using multiple monitors, accidentally push your mouse across the desk, and suddenly lose track of where the mouse cursor went? Yeah, that happened to me today. Afterward, I thought: "Is there a Windows shortcut to center the mouse cursor on the primary monitor?" Turns out, there isn't.

So, I sat down for about two hours and programmed a WinForms-based background app in C# that registers a global hotkey to center the mouse cursor on the primary monitor. I called the app havCurCtr. You can download it from here. You need Windows 10 or later and the .NET 8 Desktop Runtime to run this app. The source code is available on GitHub under the MIT license. As usual, there's also a screenshot on the projects page.

I've also added havGSD to the projects and downloads page now. I didn't do it when I first released it, because I didn't want to include GitHub projects there, but I changed my mind - if it's an app or plugin (and not just a library), I'll include it.
