Cursor Disappears in Fullscreen.
When the game is being run in Fullscreen the cursor disappears.
I noticed this happening when playing a modpack, initially I thought that it was Minecraft being modded that was causing it so then I installed a vanilla version of 1.16.5 and ran that in Fullscreen, I got the same results my cursor had vanished, I then installed a 1.17.1 which is the most recent release version my launcher offers, lo and behold my cursor vanished again.
I have done some research and most solutions to this problem just say "disable enhanced pointer precision" or "disable trails", none of those Windows mouse settings have ever been enabled on my PC and these solutions do work. I checked all of my drivers to see if they were all recent to which they are, I checked to see if there were any bugs that were relating to the one I am reporting and there is but it was resolved as Invalid due to being a "technical" issue, which it isn't because I have tested this on 2 release versions and have managed to replicate simply by pressing F11 and switching fullscreen on in the games options menu.
I would post images of this but when I tried to my cursor wasn't visible in the evidence snapshot in Windowed mode even though I could see it on screen.

I have played other games in Fullscreen that have cursors of their own and they work fine, there is no reason at all why the cursor in Minecraft should disappear in fullscreen when it is not being locked to the camera and I refuse to accept that this is a "technical" issue.

Based off of the resolution of MC-238942 and a comment left by a helper, this is invalid and you should reach out to community support
I checked with a friend to see if their cursor disappeared too, they could see their cursor in fullscreen which probably means that something on my side is causing my cursor to vanish.
With that being said, please approach Community Support for assistance regarding this problem.
