I tried to record a video, but this damned cursor is not visible after the recording and on screenshots. But it looks like this: the cursor pops out of nowhere and very quickly jumps back to the center of the screen from a distance of 3-4cm.


Please fix it, it is very annoying and immersion breaking.

    Changing the video output setting to windowed borderless works for me.

    That mouse cursor bug is often happenign to me when tabbing and multitasking to other windows. When I come back to ME:A full screen the cursor is there stuck in the middle.

    For me I have a rather easy solution: just open Origin overlay in-game and close it again (default is SHIFT+F1 and then ESC). And everything is fine again.

    Hope it helps others.

    I had this bug pop up after I reinstalled windows 11 on my laptop. Drove me nuts and I couldn't find a solution (that didn't involve installing other software), but I finally figured it out. Turning off windows gaming mode (not the gaming bar, but gaming mode) resolved the issue for me. I don't know if it'll fix the issue for others who are having this problem, but it worked for me.

    Hope this info helps others who might still be having this issue.

    This is on the older side of time, I'm closing this thread to stop it from being necroed.

    If you have any issues with Mass Effect: Andromeda, please make a new topic about your problems and what kind of steps you have tried to solve them.
