“Excel pointer (IBeam/crosshair) is invisible in AVD sessions

Please note that this is Polish Q&A Forum, any threads should be posted in Polish. However, I will still provide an answer on English based on your initial response.

Hi Bartłomiej Fedor

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A Forum.

From your description, I understand that in Azure Virtual Desktop, the Excel pointer becomes invisible or very faint, especially on white cells, but only for a specific user/session.

Since you have tried some methods you mentioned above, here are some alternative workarounds to help resolve this issue:

1. Open RegEdit as Administrator
2. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Dwm
3. If the key ‘OverlayTestMode’ is missing, add it as a new DWord with a value of ‘00000005’.
4. Restart the machine.
   Or you can try to enable the setting under Colour Management.

I hope it helps, please feel free to let me know if you need any further assistance.
