Windows 10 Mouse interruptions

Howdy.

Simple question but I have no answer.

Windows will interrupt the game for a microsecond, the cursor will appear and then it'll stutter for a small amount of time, usually really messing with my flow. 

Is there a way to keep windows from doing anything else or change the priority mode of Rsmith so that this doesn't occur? It doesn't happen in any other games that constantly use the mouse. It just seems that it tries to find something, forget it was playing a game and forgets to hide the cursor and then trips over its own genitals. 

I don't believe it's hardware

System: 

Windows 10 Student up to date

3.5ghz i5

16gb ram

installed on m.200 windows drive (possible access timing issue? but it happened on my other ssd's and sata spinners)

legit copy of Rsmith 2014 Remastered

I hate ubisoft with a passion and wish any other game company would come out with this product. 

playing with cable, will happen with solo or multiplayer using two cables. 

plugged into usb3 level sockets

occurs about once every 7-8 minutes, in song or not. If it has happened recently, it also might not happen for a few of those cycles mentioned.

What else do people need now for troubleshooting?
