If you connect your mouse to the USB splitter and then plug it into two different computers, the signal should reach both devices without problems.

You can also connect remotely using a remote desktop link, though the Pro version of Windows is required. Mouser, if there are any left. Team Viewer.

The main problem I'm encountering is that using a single mouse to manage two or more PCs at once by mirroring input requires the computers to have nearly identical interfaces. Otherwise, you'll face issues like clicking on one PC but missing the target or getting unexpected behavior on the other. So, you generally need either remote access tools or a KVM switch, either hardware or software based.
