  1. Cursor Not Showing in Windows Advanced Options Menu - Need Help!


    Hi everyone,I'm having an issue with my Windows PC. When I boot into the Advanced Options menu , the cursor is not showing up on the screen, making it impossible to select any options like Startup Repair, System Restore, or Command Prompt. I can see the menu, but I can't navigate it because the cursor is missing.I've tried restarting the system multiple times, but the issue persists.I'm not sure if this is a hardware issue, a driver problem, or something else.Has anyone encountered this issue before? How can I fix the cursor not showing in the Advanced Options menu? Any help would be greatly a

    :)

    Feature suggestions - move to proper menus, add Options window

    Suggestions:
    1) Remove main menus from top left menu (system menu) and move them to a standard Windows menu, at the top.
    Leave the 6 system menu items (Restore --- Close) in system menu, move all the rest to that standard main menu. The main menu can be auto-hidable - pressing Alt key to invoke it or hide it, similar to the way IE11 menus and many Windows 10 built-in apps' menus work.

    2) And/or, add an Options menu or button, which would invoke a separate screen with GPU-Z Options, similar to how most Windows apps work.
    Most Windows apps have a separate Options screen, which GPU-Z lacks - one should be added.

    Thanks in advance for listening!

    Hi Dany,

    I realize the inconvenience you are experiencing with Windows Startup options. I will certainly help you.

    I suggest you to try the steps below and check if this helps in enabling the Advance boot option.

    • Use any administrator account to sign-in/log on to your Windows 10 computer.
    • Once on the desktop window, right-click the Start button from the bottom left corner.
    • From the displayed context menu, click the Command Prompt (Admin) option.
    • In the opened Administrator: Command Prompt interface, type the
      BCDEDIT /SET {DEFAULT} BOOTMENUPOLICY LEGACY command.
    • Hit Enter to execute the command.
    • Close the command window when done.
    • After this, left-click the Start button.
    • Click Power from the Start menu.
    • From the displayed options, click Restart.

    Now follow the below steps and check if you are able to see the
    Advance boot options.

    • Open Settings, and click/tap on the
      Update & security icon.

    • Click/tap on
      Recovery on the left side, and click/tap on Restart
      now under Advanced startup. Check if you are able to view the
      Troubleshoot option.
