Cursor keeps jumping while I'm writing a word doc.

So I’m in the process of writing a paragraph and all of the sudden the cursor will jump randomly to a part I’ve already written and begin writing in the middle of a sentence already completed.

Are you using a laptop? Does this happen in other programs?

Yes, and no it does not.

If you are using a laptop then you might find this thread at Apache OpenOffice Forum useful: [Solved] Difficulty with OpenOffice Writer on Windows 10. Read it even if you are not using Windows 10 - the information might still be relevant to your problem if you are using a laptop.

Remember to report back here if this does or does not fix the problem.

Will do and Thank you.

Thank you but this did not fix the problem.

Disable Tap to click in the Touchpad.

I’ll try that. Thank you!

I disabled my touch and tried again. Within a few minutes of writing the cursor jumped again.
