  1. Windows update on 2/12/2021 - Extra floating mouse pointer


    Since updating Win10 this morning, I have a small less than 1 inch round area in the upper-right area of my screen that displays a stationary mouse pointer, or whatever shape the pointer is where it is hovering at other parts of the screen.

    Annoying, because the 'real' mouse pointer is flashing or disappearing as I attempt to hone in on something small, for instance to change the size of an object.

    :)

  2. MOUSE POINTER-SIZE-BRIGHTNESS-VISIBILITY

    Or, if you like to see how to do it in Windows 7:

    1. Start button (bottom left)
    2. Control Panel
    3. Hardware and sound
    4. Mouse
    5. The Pointers tab
    6. Under scheme, select the pointer you want
    I use the Windows Black Extra Large

    A suggestion:

    on the Pointer options tab

    Check the box next to automatically move the pointer to the default button

  3. 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.
