Cursor Flickering in Adobe Acrobat Pro with Enlarged Cursor
This issue appears to be related to cursor behavior when accessibility settings are enabled. For accessibility reasons, the Windows cursor size is set to 9 (enlarged). When using Adobe Acrobat Pro, moving the cursor over a PDF document or navigating between form fields causes the cursor to rapidly switch to the hourglass/working icon, especially when hovering over text fields. This constant flickering and icon change is distracting and makes it difficult to work comfortably.
I have already tried the following troubleshooting steps, but the issue still occurs:
- Adjusted Adobe Acrobat Preferences
- Changed Windows OS settings (animations turned off)
- Reset the Adobe application
- Performed a full uninstall and reinstall
The problem only occurs when the cursor is enlarged. When using the default (normal‑sized) cursor, the issue does not occur.
A video demonstrating this behavior has been attached for reference.
I have been directed to create a Request/Bug Report for this after working with Adobe tech under CASE ID - E-002148977
