The workaround is to enable the option Hide mouse at screen edge on the Settings form or switch the focus to another window first.$$$In Windows 8 & up; the mouse pointer might be invisible if there is no physical mouse attached to the machine. Plug in an unused mouse or turn on Mouse Keys in Control Panel.$$$Some users mentioned having the KeysNotMatched error when reinstalling the app in one machine even typing in the same key. Restarting the app in both machines would help.$$$After changing the Displays Scale (DPI) in Display settings; the apps Settings forms UI may be broken; some labels/textboxes may be overlapped by others. To resolve this; sign out and sign in of Windows again. In some versions of Windows; restarting an app is not enough but you would have to start a new Window session after changing the Displays Scale.$$$
