Key Takeaways

  • If your text cursor unexpectedly turns white when you hover over text boxes, try adjusting your display output. If you're using a laptop with an external monitor attached, try disconnecting it and see if the cursor issue persists on the laptop's built-in screen.
  • You can also configure Windows to always display the mouse cursor to solve the issue.
  • If configuring Windows to always display the mouse cursor doesn't work, you can try other troubleshooting steps, such as removing extensions, changing your mouse pointer settings, disabling Multiplane Overlay, or changing the mouse pointer scheme settings.
