Mouse cursor vanishes inside Premiere Pro when autosave occurs during mouse click/drag

Description: During long editing sessions, when autosave triggers while I am actively holding/dragging the mouse cursor (e.g., adjusting color sliders), the mouse cursor permanently disappears, but only inside the Premiere Pro window.

**This issue has been observed repeatedly**

 

  • Issue Details:

    • I am using a triple-monitor setup. The mouse cursor remains completely visible on the desktop and in other applications.

    • The cursor vanishes only when moved over the Premiere Pro interface.

    • Even though the cursor is invisible inside Premiere Pro, hovering over main menu items still shows highlight/hover effects, and clicking still works—only the cursor graphic itself is hidden.

System Specs:

  • OS: Windows 11

  • GPU Driver: NVIDIA Studio Driver

  • CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) Ultra 7 265K

  • RAM: 64 GB

  • GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 (VRAM: 12GB)

  • Display Setup: 3 Monitors

Hi ​@Beon916,

Welcome to the Premiere forums! Thank you for reporting this occurrence and for providing your system specs. To better assist you and to try to understand the problem, we will need more detail:

  • What is the exact version of Premiere you are using?
    • Is this first time this has happened with that version of Premiere?
    • Has the cursor ever performed the way you expected on this version or another version?
  • Is there a point where the cursor becomes visible again? (After program restart for example.)
    • Does resetting preferences and clear cache help?
  • Would it be possible to send a screen recording of the occurrence?

Best,

Jonathan

Same issue for me, it’s been happening for years randomly a few times per sessions, on multiple Premiere versions, same kind of setup with 3 monitors (but 4090 and i9 13900K), it happened on different computers as well, only reappears if I restart the software, resetting preference and clearing cache doesn’t change anything.

So if Auto Save starts while I’m clicking a volume meter or an opacity meter or something in the timeline like that, the cursor vanishes, I can still click inside, but can’t see it, and it comes back only if I restart Premiere. The cursor is still there on any other app, or desktop, just not showing when hovering anything in Premiere.
