Ok...
My question is... how can the program perform so arbitrarily. After all, it is a piece of code. 

Hi DRON -

There just might be a glitch that's caused the issue. However, you have nothing to worry since it can be fixed in case the issue persist again in the future.

Thank you and have a great day!

WowThat feature is definitely on my computer and causing a significant amount of trouble with an at home job!!

My leveno computer has never had the hovering happen. I didn't even know it was possible.

BUT my new HP gaming computer has repetitive ongoing frustrating issues with hovering right from the start. I cannot go across my screen without touching anything but have windows open for something I ran my touchpad over.

This is horrible for someone trying to do data input or needing to look up multiple items online and consistently get the wrong window to open on the way to one I wanted, which does not open.

I finally learned it is called hovering. I have followed many directions on how to stop the hovering, only to be told it is a windows 10 problem

No, as one computer has this and one does not.

This appears to be an HP problem or gaming problem

BUT I need it to stop forever, not just a day. It cannot activate anything unless I click on it. It seems possessed.
