When switching to another Windows application from TinyTERM, your cursor may disappear. This can happen if you set a block cursor within TinyTERM. In some circumstances, this sets the cursor to block globally within Windows. It’s a Windows behavior, not something that can be controlled within TinyTERM.

In this situation, when you switch to another application, such as Microsoft Word, the global block cursor may appear as no cursor. It can’t be displayed as a block in the new application. The only fix is to use an underscore cursor instead of a block.
