I have trouble posting code in the comments of that blog post.
I wonder if it wouldn’t be possible to simply add a synchronous command to the
generalize phase of build and capture’s Unattend.xml like we have for turning
off the consumer experience components… Going to give this a try.
<RunSynchronousCommand wcm:action="add">
<Description>Show Cursor during Setup</Description>
<Order>5</Order>
<Path>reg add
HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System /v
EnableCursorSuppression /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f </Path>
</RunSynchronousCommand>

I understand. The windows team that can’t manage to release a Server OS
without XBOX tiles is unlikely to have resources devoted to unhiding the mouse
cursor during OS Deployment.
I feel that as I develop a deployment strategy for Windows 10, I am having sand
kicked in my face at every turn.

FYI, I just closed the item as external; this is confirmed as a bug in Windows
when Microsoft Support engineers reproduced the issue outside of SCCM. Opening
a support case will help add impact to the issue with another customer hitting
the same issue, but to set expectations may not further expedite resolution.

Subject: [MDT-OSD] RE: Windows 10 - mouse cursor gone during OSD
I see this problem has been asked, but I don’t know if there was ever an answer.
When I “F8” to open a command window during an OS Deployment of Windows 10,
there is no mouse cursor displayed. The cursor is just hidden, the mouse still
“works” it is just the pointer is no visible. It makes troubleshooting OS
Deployment difficult to impossible because the only real action you can do is
with the keyboard. Windows get in the way of what you are looking at – it is
just really difficult to maneuver in the OS without the mouse cursor.
Has anyone figured out a good way to recover the cursor? This is really
tedious. Anything in the Unattend.xml that could counteract this effect or
maybe some command In the TS that could run after reboot to show the mouse. It
feels like whatever process is hiding the desktop with the black screen is also
hiding the mouse. So frustrating.
The cursor is present in WinPE stages, but not full OS. It is also fine from
the same boot media in Windows 7 deployment.

Anyone else have this problem. If my TS bombs out for any reason, if I want to
troubleshoot I have no mouse pointer. The mouse “works” (I can blindly click
around and see things happen), but there’s no pointer.
