A couple of times now I have been unable to scroll across the map right or down. Its allowing me to scroll up and left with the cursor arrow but not down and right. Anyone else had this problem?

This is playing c&c Red Alert btw...

This is the result of alt-tabbing out of the game. It switched the game to windowed mode.

 

You can fix it by pressing alt+enter to switch back to fullscreen mode.

Hi,

I wanted to add that it's not only the result of alt-tabbing.

I've also experienced the problem when I receive alerts from Microsoft Outlook or Microsoft Teams.
I alt-tab out of the game, get rid of the notification, and then go back into the game.

YOU CAN ALSO CLOSE THE GAME THEN RE-LAUNCH IT. THIS WILL FIX THE BUG TOO.
