    mouse cursor has offset (doesn't paint where it should)

      Hi folks. I desperately need your help please.

       

      When I started Photoshop this morning the cursor had a slight offset, i.e. Photoshop doesn't paint where you click but on neighbouring pixels - in my case it seems to be +1/+1 (see screenshot). Also note that the crosshairs for the pencil tool are not centered anymore (I'm not 100% sure, but I'm almost certain they used to be).

       

      The problem only occurs in Photoshop. When I switch to any other application the cursor behaves like it should. Closing all other apps and restarting Windows didn't help. I tried a different mouse and the internal touchpad of my notebook but the situation remained unchanged. I don't know what else to do.

       

      I never had any Problems with PS in all those years and I didn't install any new software for weeks.

       

      I will be eternally thankful to you if you can help me with this.

      Thank you.
