I went to ShareMouse (which for just TWO computers with each just ONE screen has a free version, too) after first trying the free MouseWithoutBorders from "Microsoft Garage", this latter tool works, too, but I did not overcome the problem of it asking you for the respective "security code" of the other computer every time one of the computers' screen went to sleep for some minutes finding and then manually entering the two "security codes" (which change all the time) takes more than one minute every time, so using "MouseWithoutBorders" is a nightmare. The idea is brilliant since if I try to work with several keyboards/mice in such a setting, I always end up with trying to put input with one keyboard which is not the right one, not speaking of the fact that independently of there being enough space or not on the desk, only one of the keyboards can be placed "right", while typing on the other (ones) is really difficult. For these software solutions to work, both (all) computers must be connected to the same network group (LAN) in my case, they both are, very simply, connected to the same web router. ShareMouse is a program that you install on two (or more) computers (with a licence installed on just one of them), each computer having its own screen(s), but then you only need the keyboard and mouse of ONE of those computers, and then by moving the mouse over the several screens, you identify the "active" computer, ie the one which receives mouse-key and keyboard-key input.
