EnvironmentHost: Windows 10 64

VirtualBox:6.1.32
No enhancement package installed.
vre on , port number: 5001 , authentication method: null.
Use: 127.0.0.1:5001 link

Mouse does not overlap after RDP link, mouse is heavily offset inside and outside, hard to use.

I have tried setting up windows rdp within Guest to use 192.168.1.50:3389 for the link, no such problems

您好!

I see this mouse offset while remoting in via Virtualbox RDP happening when Guest Additions is not installed in the VM OS. The VM's pointing device setting may have something to do with it too. I tested on an XP VM with PS/2 mouse as the VM's pointing device.

You are correct. Changing the mouse type to USB. would have solved my problem. Thank you for your help.
Thanks :D :D
