Cursor not working correctly with Brave Browser. The cursor disappears intermittently or becomes a two headed arrow


  1. Periodically the cursor on a Brave window disappears or becomes a two headed arrow instead of it’s normal shape
  2. Clickable areas on the screen appear to be highlighted even when the cursor is not visible but hovers over the appropriate screen location
  3. The problem reoccurs even after the Windows computer is rebooted
  4. The problem does not occur with other Browsers

The problem will be fixed when the cursor is fixed and works consistently on the Brave Window as it is supposed to

Brave version 0.99.5

Windows 11 Home edition version 24H2
