[FIXED] Cursor gets stuck on Camera icon in CAS

Issue

When in CAS, the cursor suddenly gets stuck on the Camera icon and does not want to change back. All you can do is force-close the game.

Possible Workarounds/Solutions

Most of these are taken from the old thread here: Cursor stops working in CAS. If a solution helps you, please click on the link and give the post XP.

• If you are only using a touch pad, try plugging in a mouse (if you have).
• If you are using a mouse, unplug it and plug it in again or try a different mouse (if you have).
• Try pressing the mouse wheel on your mouse.
• Try window or full window mode.
• Left click and hold down and then press the right mouse button while still pressing the left one.
• Download a family from the gallery and use the cas.fulleditmode cheat to change
• Click and press Enter at the same time.
• Reinstall mouse drivers (if using a mouse)
• Click on the very corner of the touchpad
• Try using the Window button to fix.

  I have a solution that works for me so it might work for you guys too all you need Is a Windows button on your keyboard. While stuck it that mode it's still possible to click on the body of the sim to open the clothing panel, what to do is click and open the panel and bring the mouse back onto the Sim , click and hold the left click down and quickly press the Windows button. Go back onto your desktop and hold down left click on an empty part of your screen and press the Windows button once more to go back into the game. Let go of the click then try to click freely. Try multiple times. Hope this helped.
