My mouse cursor and pointer dissapears when I move it over firefox.
I have to either tab through the various fields, which is a pain, or try to move the mouse and somehow select a field, which takes me numerious tries. I'm on Windows 11. This does not happen with any other application or browser that I use. I try to use specific browsers for different types of work. I work as a Test Analyist and I reguarlly need to view websites on various pc's and os's. I've never seen this occur at work. Unfortunately for me, this is occuring on my home PC. I've tried everything I can think of, uninstalling and reinstalling, rebooting, and checking the settings for anything that would explain why this is happening. I have not found anything yet. If this keeps up, I'll have to switch to another browser.

Does this only happen in the webpage (browsing) area or also in the user interface area like the location bar?
Start Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) or if hardware acceleration or if userChrome.css/userContent.css is causing the problem.
- switch to the Default System theme: "3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Themes
- do NOT click the "Refresh Firefox" button on the Troubleshoot Mode start window

Boot the computer in Windows Safe Mode with network support to see if that has effect.
