    Help! My Pointer Keeps Disappearing

    This is so uncomfortable.

    My pointer keeps on disappearing. This is the 3rd times.

    The 1st time it happened, i googled many articles and tried many suggestion and i have no idea which one act works.

    The 2nd time i was just very lucky that the pointer return after my windows auto update.

    This time, it disappear again after my laptop did the auto update.

    I tried the sfc scan. But because my pointer is missing i can't do the whole step by step suggested.

    I can't right click or double click.

    I can only use touch screen.

    Plz help! This is very irritating, help!

    Pointer disappears

    the pointer will not show up in games, and the custom pointers still disappear for both my mouse and touchpad

    Original title: Mouse Pointer Dissappears

    I downloaded windows 10 a while ago. Recently, I got a custom pointer (blue light saber, it was cool) and it would often disappear. I switched back to the default pointer. Now, that pointer disappears whenever I play games, like Halo Spartan Strike. I turned
    on mouse trails. I did all the stuff with the driver. I did all the Fn combinations, but the pointer will not show up in games, and the custom pointers still disappear. I have searched the help community and tried everything I saw. This happens for both my
    mouse and touchpad. Any ideas? Also I am dumb when it comes to tech-talk so please keep it simple. Pointer disappears :)

    • Logitech Mouse M310

    Thanks.
