Don't hold your breath, they took over a year to fix the disappearing cursor issue on some distributions of Win11 in 2024-2025, the cause was rooted in the interaction between the brand new desktop window manager and the legacy cursor rendering path that hadn't been updated since Vista, when moving the mouse between an application rendered with modern XAML components and a legacy system window, the cursor would sometimes become fully transparent, it was still there but invisible to the user until system reboot, turns out that building fluid fancy modern UI elements on top of a legacy Win32 framework does that sometimes.
