Windows 10: Mouse pointer keeps being big, nothing works

Hi!I have a problem with my mouse pointer. I have tried everything I could find online.My mouse pointer keeps going back to a bigger size, it's really annoying.I keep resetting it to be smaller again, but somehow it keeps setting itself back to a huge size. I've tried scaling, the option of turning the quick startup off etc.Can someone help me? it's not nice to keep having to make my cursor small every 10 minutes.Best,Ellis

Mouse Pointer

Hi,

You can customize your mouse in a variety of ways in Windows. To change how your mouse pointer looks, you can follow the steps below:

• Right-click on the Start menu, then click Control Panel.
• Select Mouse, then go to the Pointers tab.
  
• Select the pointer you prefer from the drop-down list, click
  Apply > OK.

If you want to use a pointer that is not on the list, you can download it online. After that, go to Control Panel > Mouse > Pointers tab again, then click
Browse.

Update us if it addressed your issue.

 

Mouse pointer 'None' scheme not working

Hello Raptor226,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forum.

In regards to your concern, kindly help me with following questions:

1. What is the make and model of the computer?
   
2. Is it a wired mouse or a wireless mouse?
   

Driver incompatibility is one of the possible reasons why you're having issues with your mouse. Having said that, we recommend performing the methods below:

Method 1: Uninstall the mouse drivers from device manager.

• Press Windows + R keys to open
  Run window.
  
• Type devmgmt.msc in the run option and click
  OK.
  
• Search for the mouse drivers and click Uninstall.
  
• Restart the computer and check if that helps you.
  

Method 2: If Method 1 doesn’t resolve the issue, you can install the latest mouse drivers from the manufacturer’s website for the mouse pointer to function.
