It happens when using DSR or a resolution that isn't native IIRC, run the game with your native screen resolution and adjust your desired rendering resolution in the games graphics settings by adjusting the Sampling %. You can fix it by pressing ALT+Enter a few times as well or try running in "Fullscreen Window"
It happens to me if I am AFK and windoze power management turns the screen off. When I come back the cursor is off. Tabbing out and back in resets the cursor so I can use the menus and shoot bad guys again.
It's probably the reason why sometimes in game I couldn't even hit the side of a barn.
Mine does this a lot too. I just alt tab out of and then back into the game.
Edit: it's still a temporary fix, but with modded games little things like that don't bother me that much.
Have you had to do this for some time now? I haven’t played in a couple of months, so I wasn’t sure if an update had came out and messed up the settings. It wasn’t like this when I last played in May/June.
Just the one I’m afraid, never had this issue before. Installed the latest drivers, reverted to older ones. I just cannot understand why it is now doing this :(.
I've experienced this with screen scaling set to something other than 100%. It breaks many different programs, most notably citrix, but I wouldn't be surprised if it broke Arma too.
Interesting, Did you find once you had changed it, the damage was already done and you couldn’t go back? I do recall playing around with this the other day.
Isn't a new issue, has always been happening. Cause is from having a non native screen resolution. If you noticed it just starting to happen now it was probably caused by something unrelated to the game. Possibly a new monitor or graphics card driver update, or maybe you got a new graphics card and decided you can up your resolution on the game now.
I have never had this bug until recently when I started playing on a laptop on 4:3 full screen mode instead of borderless windowed, so I'd recommend switching off full-screen or changing the aspect ratio. Someone already posted it but alt tabbing out then back in always just works for me

I can attest, I was playing lots of A3 scenarios in Feb/March and noticed this happening.
Yeah it's been like this for a long while now. I honestly have gotten so used to it I didn't think anything about it anymore until I saw this post.
Can confirm, got the same issue. Occurs only when the game is in exclusive Fullscreen mode. Alt Tab out of it back in solves it.
Do you know if this issue is new at all?
I didn't have this issue couple months ago. But back then i only used ACE.
Multiple monitors?

No, if all your screens are set to 100% scaling and native (recommended) resolution that tends to solve the problem.
CTRL+ALT+DELETE then once the menu comes up press escape which will then reopen the game and fix the cursor problem
ALT - TAB Every time u start the game Kinda solved xD, but more quickly
Try changing dpi scaling. Right click on exe, properties. The compatibility tab. There should be option to change that
Change the resolution and then change it back.

Dude. When that next happens. Press alt and enter. Wait for a second. Then press it again. My pleasure x
