    My guest cursor is not visible but working properly. But I felt little difficult working using a hidden cursor. Please see the SS attached.
    Can anyone please help me to fix this? Thanks in advance.

    Can you post a vmware.log from the VM in question?

    You can try adding this config option into your VM's vmx file:

    mks.noHostCursor = TRUE

    That will cause us to manually draw the cursor into the window rather than trying to accelerate it up to the Host's cursor and can fix Host-side cursor issues.

    Just checking VM setting and see if 3D Graphics is unchecked

    Upgrade the VM's hardware version.
