Windows 10: Why is my mouse cursor not showing on new windows accounts?

I have my old user account where everything works fine. However, whenever I try to add a new user, mouse pointer is not showing. It is not user specific - tried creating multiple new users both local and with MS account - all have the same problem. So it is not just a corrupt profile issue.Mouse and touchpad are apparently working, cause I can see certain things highlight when I hover on them, but I can't see the cursor itself, it's invisible. So the only option to click on something is enabling the "find the cursor" option and constantly pressing ctrl to identify when the cursor is.It also

Keeping mouse cursor inside a Windowed game?

I'm wondering if there is any method to keeping the mouse cursor within a windowed game, lets take Starcraft 2 for example. I only have one screen and like to play games in windowed mode so I can watch shows/movies right next to it. In a game like SC2, moving the mouse to the border of the screen to move the camera is troublesome in windowed mode. It'd probably make more sense to post this on the SC2 forum, but I can't because my forum account was banned (Inappropriate name if you're curious). So might anyone have any ideas?

No mouse cursor

Hi,

It is possible that the system did not recognize the mouse of your computer after it booted up. This can be the reason why you do not see the mouse cursor. Kindly perform a power cycle to refresh the power of the computer. To do this, follow these steps:

• Shutdown the computer.
• After shutting it down, remove the battery (if you're using a laptop) and disconnect the computer from the charger.
  
• Wait for 1 minute.
• After 1 minute, attach the battery and turn on the computer.
• Check if you will see the mouse cursor.

Let us know how it goes.
