  1. Mouse pointer shows in fullscreen gaming when it shouldn't


    Whenever I launch a game (any game) my mouse works fine just as its supposed to. It changes to the games default mouse and everything runs fine until I move it into the middle-rightmost area of the screen. When it goes there it changes from the games mouse to the default Windows mouse. I really need it fixed because it prevents me from clicking in-game buttons on that specific area of the screen, which is very annoying.

    I've also tested it on multiple mouses, and I'm pretty sure its a fullscreen issue rather than a mouse problem.

    (Windows 10)

  2. The combination of DX11, Mouse Pointer Trails and Fullscreen Games means no mouse cursor.

    Hi,

    For Mouse Pointer Trails, refer the steps below.

    Step 1: Click the bottom-left Start button on the desktop, enter
    mouse in the blank box and tap Mouse in the search results to open Mouse Properties.

    Step 2: Choose Pointer Options, select
    Display pointer trails
    and hit OK.

    Tip: To specify the length of pointer trails, you can move the
    small scale in Visibility to left or right.

    Also for the mouse issue, I suggest you to download the latest drivers for mouse from the manufacturer's website and check. Install the drivers in compatible mode and check as well.

    I suggest you to run the game in Direct X12 as this is the latest in Windows 10. Check if the issue persist.

    Hope this helps. Get back to us for further queries. We are happy to help!

  3. GUYS, MOUSE POINTER/CURSOR NOT SHOWING UP IN FULL SCREEN GAMES, TRIED UNCHECKING POINTER TRAILS AND ENHANCE POINTER PRECISION NONE WORK!!

    As the subject suggests, I have problems with all kinds of full screen games... my cursor/pointer won't show up even when I already followed the solutions such as unchecking pointer trails or the uncheck enhance mouse pointer precision thing. STILL NO cursor/pointer
    showing up. BUT when I play DOTA 2 and League of Legends, THE POINTER SHOWS UP AND I PLAY THESE 2 IN FULLSCREEN TOO. Tried reinstalling the other games cause I thought it's installation problem thingy, not solved, tried restoring my pc to FACTORY SETTING and
    it's still NOT SOLVED!!!! IS THIS A POSSIBLE BUG FROM WINDOWS 10? PLS HELP ME!!

    Mouse not showing in fullscreen games

    I've tried these

    Method 1:

    I would suggest you to disable it and check for the results. Follow the steps to do so:

    • Press Windows and X keys together and select Control Panel.
    • Click on Mouse.
    • Navigate to pointer options tab.
    • Under Visibility, uncheck the box which says “display pointer trails”.
    • Click on OK to close the window.
    Check if you find the same issue. If yes, move to the next method.

    Method 2:

    Follow the steps below to change the display text size to 100 % and check if it resolves the issue:

    • Right Click on the desktop screen and select Personalize.
    • Click on Display.
    • Check the box that says “let me choose one scaling level for all my display”. Choose Smaller (100%)-default.
    • Click on Apply. Restart the game and check if the point becomes invisible again.
    Please let us know the status of this issue.

    but none of them work

    i dont want to reset my pc

    any help?
