Cursor is stuck

How do I reset my cursor while in game without resetting the sim. It works OK. but I’m stuck with an Up/Down Arrow and can’t get back to the regular pointer. It won’t change shape when I point to knobs and switches. A trivial problem but annoying, there must be a key press to fix this surely!

Two things come to mind.

  • Alt-Enter and minimize MSFS. Then click on any icon on the desktop.
  • Unplug (or turn off) mouse. wait 30 secs and reconnect (turn-on)

Otherwise - :man_shrugging:

This just happened to me. I opened and closed the ATC window with the scroll-lock key. I think it got stuck when the cursor was on the edge of the ATC window and it thought I was resizing. I closed the window with scroll-lock and it got stuck.

Anyway, for me I just opened the ATC window again and moved the cursor around the window. Then the cursor was back to normal.

Maybe this helps you? Probably not since you posted the question 3 months ago …

yes - same thing happens the same way with the ‘V’ map open. Fix it the same way.
BTW the cursor still works - it just looks confused about itself
