Mouse Movement not working on a Windows 10 VM running on VMware Fusion Player 12.1.2 on MacOS BigSur

I managed to solve the problem by doing following things

Shutdown all VMs and Quit VMware Fusion Pro Player 12.1.2
Go to iMac System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Privacy > Accessbility > VMware Fusion > Uncheck it
Launch the VMware Fusion and Boot up Windows 10 VM

The mouse movement is back to normal.

Mouse problems with Big Sur Installed Big Sur on an iMac purchased new in 2016 and when the system booted up for the first time, my mouse no longer tracks properly. It varies on being inches up from the arrow to inches to the left. Very confusing and hard to function. Is there a fix?
