Disappearing cursor

My cursor disappears when I switch between open tabs or windows. I can re-capture it with F3, but this is a pain. Can this be fixed?

MacBook, macOS 10.14

Could it possibly be a Finder-related issue? Have you tried relaunching the Finder by holding down the Option key, and then right-clicking the Finder icon in your Dock, and then selecting "relaunch"? What about deleting ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist and rebooting your Mac so that it can create a new plist file?
