I have a Gateway ZX4800 All-in One. There are times when an extra cursor comes up out of nowhere inside a circle or small square. It will open or close apps by itself and try to trap my cursor. When my cursor gets trapped, I cannot move it out of the circle or square. In the past, I would try rebooting or system restore and it would go away. I had just reinstalled windows 10 so there is no restore point. How can I remedy This Problem?

Have ran several full scans with Windows Defender. The scans found no threats. What would be any dodgy applications in in task manager?
Pick as the solution

I took off the back and air cleaned it. The problem seems to have disappeared.

Run an anti-virus scan.
Check for any dodgy applications in in task manager.
