Mouse pointer missing

Hi there!
I've been using this great app for some time, but in my computer I noticed something really weird.
Sometimes, my mouse pointer simply disappears and when I close Dexpot it appears again. This happens only on a window at time, more frequently in explorer.
I'm using Windows 7 - 64 bits version.
Could it be beacause of it?
Thanks,
Jonnybravo

as far as I can remember, we're hiding and showing the mouse cursor in just one situation: Black-out Desktop (Default hotkey is Windows-Key + F5).
It's probably not related to Dexpot. Any 3rd party apps running?

Yes, I've other apps running, like docks for example.
The weird thing is that this stops when I close Dexpot. Then, I run it again and everything is good until the next disappearence.
I've tested the program on Windows XP - 32 bits and this doesn't happened. Maybe I will test it on another Windows 7 - 64 bits to check if the problem is mine.
Are you sure that this couldn't happen for another reason?
Thanks,

Well, I discovered something interesting today. When I delete a file from a folder the "curse" wakes...
If you want I can make you a little video with the effect.
The other applications that I'm running besides Dexpot:
- CircleDock;
- Nexus;
- F.lux;
This three are running at startup as well as Dexpot... if you want a more detailed list or the video, I can provide them tomorrow.
Thanks,

I've tried it, but without success...but I've an update. This only occurs with SHIFT + DEL. I've only noticed it today, because I usually delete my files with this combination, but if I delete them with DEL alone, its fine...
Do you have a computer with Windows 7- 64 bits to test this?

remove Dexpot from your start-ups and see if the issue occurs again.
