Moving Mouse Out Of Fullscreen game Without Alt+Tab

Hi! I have two monitors and I find that playing on fullscreen on my games just makes it look smoother. But there is one downside to using fullscreen, i can't move my curser to the other screen without alt+tabing. Doing this takes time to unload, then load the game, over and over again (I use my second monitor a lot during gaming sessions). I was wondering, is there a way to allow my curser to move between monitors, without alt+tabing and using borderless/windowed?

Borderless windowed mode is the easiest way

I use borderless windows for games like Football Manager.

 

I have the game on one screen and my spreadsheets and guides etc on another screen.

There are multimonitor software which can force window to stay active. How well they do it, when I tried last it was hit and miss.

The software didn't work? What software did you use?

I have full version of DisplayFusion. It worked with some games, but not with BF4 for example. It has some better working stuff like locking cursor within active window.
