    Mouse cursor gets pixelated and may vanish, upon changing pointer size

    I use multiple monitors and needed to increase the size of the mouse pointer to better find the whereabouts of the mouse. Recently, I keep observing my mouse pointer getting pixelated across all its possible modes: be it a pointer, a capital-I shaped thing when I am in a text field, or a sandglass icon when it is waiting on something.) More recently, the mouse pointer will vanish completely should I stop moving the mouse (using a Thinkpad Trackpoint keyboard with its "red dot").

    Both the problems will be "resolved", temporarily, should I change the size of the pointer via the ms-settings:easeofaccess-MousePointer setting page: I will get a sharp-looking pointer that does not vanish. I will upload a screenshot of the pixelated pointer should I observe it again. For now, a temporary solution is to change the pointer size when things go wrong manually.

    My windows version is 2004, Build 19041.329. The problem, as I may recall vaguely, can be specific to this Windows version. I have also tried to re-install the driver for my graphic cards (I have two cards, GTX 970 and 1050, for 6 external monitors), which did not help.

    PS: many thanks to Shawn Brink who posted the List of Shortcuts to Directly Open Pages in Settings in Windows 10. I can quickly go and change the size of the mouse pointer with one command Mouse pointer keeps getting bigger or changing size in Windows 11 :)

    Mouse pointer keeps getting bigger or changing size in Windows 11

    Mouse pointer is bigger to the slave PC

    Hi i am running Mouse Without Boarders AKA on Windows 10 to my both PC. I have a set up of 2 screens. My left is the slave and right master. So when i move from the the master to slave the mouse pointer becomes bigger. I checked all settings inside Windows
    10. When i move from slave to master the pointer has the correct size. I tried to insert a usb mouse to the slave machine and the pointer changed to the right size even if i move it from the master set up. Just it feels the connection of a physical mouse the
    the shape changes to the correct one.

    How can i fix this problem?

    Thank you,

    Angelos
