    Cursor is flickering


    Please help me with the following issue. My cursor starts flickering when I try to copy paste so I receive a screenshot of all my laptop screen instead of the text I want to copy paste. When the cursor is flickering, I am unable to use Ctrl +C and Ctrl+v buttons but if I press only Ctrl, it stops flickering for a while. I suppose this issue appeared after the update.

    My system is Lenovo IdeaPad 310-15IKB running Windows 10.

    :)

    Cursor flickers when copy pasting.

    I recently updated my Windows 10 and I suddenly found myself having issues with my laptop. The cursor flickers and when it does, I am unable to use ctrl c and ctrl v. If you copy and paste something it will paste a screenshot of your whole screen. I'm currently
    using a Lenovo ideapad 310-15IKB with specs:

    • Core i5-7200U CPU @ 2.50 GHz
    • 6 GB ram
    • Nvidia Geforce 920m

    I already tried updating and uninstalling mouse and keyboard drivers. I did a complete reset of my laptop uninstalling all the apps and reinstalling windows 10. I noticed though that when I hit ctrl it will stop the flickering for a while but won't completely
    resolve the issue.

    Flickering cursor in Windows 10.

    Original Title: flickering cursor

    there are two cursors shown on my screen, both flicker and are hardly visable

    this happened after windows 10 updates were accepted. I have now reverted

    to an earlier date which has cleared many problems but not the flickering cursors,

    The screen also displays five rings like the Olympic sign which give a sound like a bell

    How can I improve this situation.

    Cursor is flickering

    flickering cursor after upgrade to win 10

    I also have similar issue after downloading update today.

    Cursor is invisible unless it is in motion, then it flickers.

    Also have another curser permanently in top left corner.

    None of the suggestions here have worked.

    Cheers.
