Excellent video. A minute and a half long, no wasted time, and the second solution actually fixed my problem. I've watched so many videos and read so many articles that went around and around telling me the same bad advice. Thanks so much!
This worked!!! I was so frustrated not being able to see my cursor on my document and I have no idea when it changed. FYI I did have to close and re-open word after following the directions before I was able to see the cursor.
This was incredibly helpful. New laptop at work, been bothering me for weeks. I was worried this would be some weird setting I couldn't change. took seconds to complete. Thank you for making this video!
This is working great for me so far on Windows 11 :-) The issue had really been bothering me and I could not find easy solutions elsewhere. Your second option worked great for me on Windows 11. Thank you SO much.
Thanks a million! I have been suffering for months on google doc. with a white Ibeam on the white screen. Couldn't take it anymore and found you. So appreciate you!🤗
Thank you. I had an inconsistent problem that only recently appeared. The text cursor would turn white when in certain tabs within Chrome and Firefox, such as Google Voice, but not for every website, such as Amazon. It seemed to be random. The "I" bar was already selected but after following the directions to redo it, it shows a correct black text cursor within all the tabs thus far. I am not certain if it will last, and it may be related to a recent update bug. I will update if it reverts.
Fuck me. I've read dozens of threads with MIcrosoft's tech support failing to help people, scratching my head in frustration for months. Then, I stumble upon this 90 second video that fixes the problem with 3-4 quick, easy steps. Thank you and have a nice day.
Great Instructions. Only one thing to add (and maybe I missed it), but if you have Word open while doing this, you may have to close it and reopen before the changes will take effect. That's what I had to do.
THANK YOU! my cursor files were named differently, but I was able to select one and it now I'm not pulling my hair out trying to navigate in a google doc!
Thank you for your time. It took me four months to find this video after trying and failing on many other fixes:) I'm pretty sure my "text cursor turning white" issue started after one of the numerous microsoft updates. Every time I would type into a text box the cursor would turn white or invisible making it super hard to type anything or edit the text. Thanks again.
This worked!! Thank you! The second option is what did it for me. I've been having such an issue with Google Docs and seeing my cursor. I have my computer in dark mode and the cursor would go white. I hope this video is seen more. Thank you!
Thank you so ,much! My computer updated and it made it hard to type my stories up because i couldnt see the typing cursor anymore, it was the same color white as the page! thank you!
My blinking line that shows where I'm typing will still not appear after trying these steps on word. I got the I-beam back though, thank you! subscribed!
Hello, Appreciate the video. While this did not solve my problem, it DID highlight to me that Microsoft Word uses a different cursor to your system. How then do I fix this?
This is happened after GPU driver update... Follow my steps to fix this guys... And thank me later I have got a new, simple and complete solution from a sensor tech supporter of Lenovo. It works perfectly for me. The followings are the details. 1. Open Notebook, and fill it in with the following Code, as shown in Figure: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Dwm] "OverlayTestMode"=dword:00000005 2. Save the file with the format”.reg“, the name is arbitrary, for example as FixCursorBug. 3. Double-click the FixCursorBug.reg, and continue till new Infos are merged into the registry. 4. Restart the OS. 5. Test and enjoy it.
Thanks. Quickly and conveniently solved my problem, no bs. You deserve a larger channel.
