Replace the KeyMap.xml
file located in the installation folder with mine.

Launch PcControl, then
right-click on the system tray icon and choose Phone settings >
Auto-Connect.

On the phone, a PcControl
menu will pop up. Select "Move Mouse" (don't ask me why it says move
mouse).

The phone will have a
