Windows 11 update arrives with much-wanted features — and very-much unwanted bugs that mess up the mouse cursor and wallpaper
Miss Microsoft's old-style chunky white mouse pointer? A weird Windows 11 bug turns the cursor retro — and it's messing with wallpapers too.
Windows 11 has introduced a new preview update in August, bringing several welcome features, such as the ability to move the taskbar and resize the Start menu. However, the update has also brought along a few vexing bugs that may impact the user experience. One of the most prominent issues is an oversized retro mouse pointer that users cannot change.
This bug has been widely reported on Microsoft's official Reddit thread, with many users expressing frustration over the issue. Another reported problem is the wallpaper turning into a blank black background. Despite these cosmetic issues, the update remains optional, and some users have reported installing the update without any problems.
Nonetheless, Microsoft is likely to face pressure to address these bugs before the preview update becomes the September update, as they could negatively impact the user experience and damage the perception of the operating system's stability.
