    Windows Cursor appears whenever I'm playing a game


    This only happens with me in Fortnite for some reason, but every time I play Fortnite and record the gameplay, it has the little recording bar as always. Whenever I'm playing, the cursor is invisible but when it goes over the little recording bar, the cursor appears. This is really annoying because when I'm playing and the cursor hovers over that area, if I right-click to shoot somebody or to edit my wall, it won't work. Also when I turn, it doesn't turn properly until the cursor leaves the recording bar. I've been using Xbox Game Bar as my recording tool all the time and this problem has been happening too much. Does anyone know how I can stop the cursor from appearing like this (no, I don't want to use captures to record clips, I want the perfect time for the gameplay by recording, not by clipping with captures).

    Thanks for the help!

    :)

    open gamebar, at the top where you see the clock you will see a mouse icon called click though, click it, should stop that from happening.

    Xbox Games Mouse Problem

    I have the same problem and also the monitor screen goes blank. I tried on different games. When you move the cursor up or down, the screen goes blank, then the image appears again, and either the taskbar at the bottom of the screen or the top panel of
    the window appears. The only solution is to play in windowed mode.

    Payday 2 Crimewave Edition

    My game is constantly freezing whenever I'm on the crime.net screen. It freezes whenever I move the cursor or when I click on anything. I can't connect with anyone either. It's a pain in the ***.

    It's probably been brought up already. I just didn't fee like going through and reading everyone's posts.

    Game DVR

    Thanks! I'm on Windows 10 with the latest updates. Some time ago I disabled the DVR because I was annoyed that anytime I opened a game the popup shows. Now if I go to Settings and then Gaming and I activate "Record
    game clips, screenshots, and broadcast using Game bar" the cursor turn on but nothing else happen and the hotkey Windows + G dosn't work too. Also if I close the Settings window and I re-open the cursor turns off by itself
