Morning everyone -
Some help appreciated. I have a samsung Chromebook - couple years old - problem is the cursor randomly disappears and the only way I can seem to get it back is by holding down off button and completely restarting it.
This is happening too often now and is a complete pain in the derrier!!
Any of you know if easier way to get it back or has my Chromebook reached the end of its life expectancy ??
Thanks

    are you using Samsung touchpad?

    Mine stopped responding and kept acting erratically if it did respond

    I use a Logica wireless mouse now, about £10 and find it much better
