    Cursor flickering when renaming file/folder


    This has been happening for at least a month and a half now, in which renaming files or folders while the cursor is on file explorer or the desktop causes it to flicker and sometimes straight-up vanish until I move the mouse. While it's not too annoying, I can only find one case exactly like mine online and am not sure if I should worry or not.Typing in notepad causes a similar issue unless the cursor is not on the program window. This issue doesn't effect other stuff like my Chrome or Paint.net, however.

    :)
