There is no default or standard setting for such mouse behavior?

This could be an Ease of Access setting, used for the handicapped. Open
Control Panel/Ease Of Access and click on "Make the mouse easier to use" and
see if there is a check mark in the "Activate a window by hovering over it
with the mouse" option.
