Windows 10: my mouse pointer stopped working for monopoly deluxe.

I have had Monopoly Deluxe on computer for a long time with no problems. Now my mouse doesn't work. The mouse works on all my other games. GameHouse told me to contact you. Any ideas on how to fix it?

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.

Spinning blue circle next to mouse pointer

This is an incredibly frustrating issue. I do a lot of screen capture recordings and I can't have my mouse arrow popping up a blue circle every 4 to 5 seconds. I'm not sure exactly when this started for me, but now that I'm ready to do some more recording
I'm noticing it constantly.

Here's a solution I've found to at least stop the blue circle:

• Start with the Microsoft suggestion of going to the mouse properties.
• Click on the "Pointers" tab.
• Select the "Working In Background" pointer and click on "Browse"
• Select the first mouse arrow option (the one that looks like a normal mouse arrow)

This doesn't get rid of whatever is causing the system to have to keep working in the background, but it will at least make the blue circle stop popping up.
