My model is Lenovo Yoaga series. I left it in tablet mode and let it sleep for a night. When I try to use it in the morning, I can only use touchscreen option. I have tried methods like going to control panel, settings, device manager, but it still doesn't work. Or maybe I could be doing wrong as well. Can someone advise me how to bring the cursor back?

    I have that same slashed microphone as F4 key, too, and no button with a slashed screen picture. Did you find a solution?

    Hi Sid

    Thank you for posting your solution. This worked for me after weeks on the pointer disappearing and disable/enable or uninstall/restart occasionally working. I am not sure what is causing the problem in the first place but so far this solution has 100% success rate for fixing it.

    I have also reported the underlying problem which causes the pointer to disappearing to Microsoft and this is currently under investigation.

    Update: The 'turn the touchpad on/off' function will not fix the problem today. I checked the driver status and the usual error was showing.

    So back to waiting for Microsoft to identify the route cause of the problem

    The icon on this key looks like a rectangle (screen) with a slash through it.

    Months later this description helped me when my cat turned my laptop into a bed.
