mouse control #2

I believe the server needs to run Administrator for it to allow mouse control (at least on Windows 8.1), documentation should likely mention this.

Yep, thanks for the notice! This seems to be a new requirement in Windows 8: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/22259936/c-move-mouse-in-windows-using-setcursorpos

Do you know if we can force the App to run with elevated rights? Or is this always something the user has to do himself (as in right click -> run as administrator)?

You can do this by embedding a manifest. See https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb756929.aspx.
