Mouse Cursor Size Issue on Windows 11 (v24H2) - HP Spectre x360
Hello everyone, I am experiencing a strange issue with my Windows 11 (version 24H2) laptop. Every time I boot up my HP Spectre x360 16-inch 2-in-1 laptop, the mouse cursor appears significantly larger than normal.
I found that resetting the graphics card temporarily resolves the issue, but the problem reoccurs with each reboot. changing the screen resolution also fixed it, any solution? My laptop is equipped with Intel Iris Xe Graphics and has 8GB of RAM.

2025-03-19T22:49:32+00:00 They wont agree on who the issue lies with, its due to the 24H2 update to windows, intel would have modified drivers to fit the new update, HP (and other companies probably) then would take those intel drivers and modify them more to fit their devices. All 3 need to work together, but they arent, they dont even acknowledge the issue. Itll probably be mopped up with an update at some point, until then i wouldnt expect much action from them

I have just posted a new message on the HP community, and if the company is unable to resolve this issue immediately, they should take back their device — I am fed up with using it.

2025-03-19T21:51:42+00:00 For those who would like this problem to be bypassed until a fix is in place, follow the following instructions, this works 100% for me, as always with these things - I cant guarentee it will work and if its not done correctly, it probably wont either. Hope it helps until HP/Microsoft and Intel get their heads together and fix this:
The problem
Windows is not setting the DPI scaling for the native display correctly, most often from a cold boot. To confirm this, when the issue next occurs do the following:
Right click on desktop
Select Display Settings
Scroll down to Scale and Layout and note the Scale value (usually 200%)
Change this 200% to any other value (e.g. 175%)
Once the display refreshes, change this back to 200% (or the original value)
Your display settings should now be back to normal. If this has resolved the issue, you should continue with this guide to make this fix happen automatically.
The fix
Download the SetDPI.exe file from github here. Full credits to the creator of this app imniko.
Save this file to a location you will remember and not delete or move, ideally C:\Temp
Automate it
Now we need to create a scheduled task to make this run every time the machine starts with a few parameters.
Press the Windows key, start typing Task Scheduler and select it
Click on Task Scheduler Library on the left bar
Right click on Task Scheduler Library and select Create Task
In the Name box, enter FixDPI
Click Run with highest privileges
Click Triggers
Click New
In Begin the Task select At log on
Select Any user
Make sure enabled is selected
Press OK
Click Actions
Click New
Action – Start a program
Program/script – Browse to the downloaded SetDPI.exe
Add arguments – Enter 175
Press OK
Click New
Action – Start a program
Program/script – Browse to the downloaded SetDPI.exe
Add arguments – Enter 200
Press OK
Click New
Action – Start a program
Program/script – Enter this: taskkill.exe
Add arguments – Enter: /F /IM explorer.exe
Press OK
Click New
Action – Start a program
Program/script – explorer.exe
Press OK
Press OK to exit scheduled tasks.
Now on any reboot the issue should no longer happen

2025-03-19T20:58:27+00:00 I have a fix I've been using formsome months, it doesn't fix the underlying issue but it reverses it every time you boot up. It's fairly easy, but I would need to create a guide and supply a file. I'm happy to do so if people would like it, but as it's a lot of work to put some guidance together if people wouldn't like it then it's no problems I can leave it until there's a permanent fix
