Issue with running multiple accounts (64 bit) - losing mouse control

[choad]

I have noticed that when running multiple instances of the 64 bit client ... that you frequently wind up losing control in the active screen. The visual effect is that you wind up spinning in a circle or walking off in a straight line with no control to stop it. You then have to alt-tab and go back into the active instance to regain mouse control. 

I have spoke with a number of others who experience the same thing. Any ideas? It makes using 2 accounts much more difficult and hardly worth  the effort honestly.

I have not tried the 32 bit recently but i believe that to be the issue.

I get this sometimes from just running one account and alt tabbing often. 

Alt Tabbing can be buggy in most games.

Yeah i do not think this is quite that. The issue i am having is you can be playing for 2 min or so ... not pressing alt-tab at all. Then you loose mouse control which normally results in you spinning in a circle as infantry. Then ... the only way to regain control is to alt-tab out and back in. Never seem to have it only doing one account and alt-tabbing for discord or whatever.
