Over classical RDP all working fine

Yes, there are mouse cursor issues on some applications (see https://github.com/cedrozor/myrtille/issues/161). Unfortunately, I never found what is the problem exactly :/ you can try to disable the mouse cursor shadow server side (https://www.thewindowsclub.com/enable-disable-mouse-pointer-shadow-windows), it proved to work sometimes

I'm experiencing this same issue in Ubuntu clients as well.It's pretty bad within Affinity Designer and makes it pretty hard to use. Of interesting note, however, is that I also have Fusion 360 up and running, and it seems to work just fine with cursors. Almost seems like it's only certain cursors that do this. I saw you mentioned this seems to be a Linux specific problem, could it have to do with certain themes missing certain cursors? Not sure how this works, just trying to think of a possible solution as I'd really like to keep using Myrtille but this is definitely a big deal and makes apps pretty hard to use.

Also, mouse cursor shadow did not seem to help in my instance :/

It may indeed be due to some cursors unavailable on the RDP client side (the Myrtille machine). What you can do is check for .cur files into your application(s) path(s) and copy them into C:\Windows\Cursors (assuming C: is the system drive) on the Myrtille machine.

See https://www.howtogeek.com/664962/how-to-change-your-mouse-cursor-theme-on-windows-10/ for more details with custom cursors and cursors themes.

Trying to look into this more, and I have some confusion. Where would I go about locating .cur files for my application? Is there a normal place they're stored in? Also, I just have to make a copy of them in Windows\Cursors, and myrtille will pass them client side? My client is Ubuntu, and at first I thought you were saying I would have to download the cursors to my Ubuntu machine, but it sounds like I just need to copy them to the correct directory on the server in this case. Can you please give me more insight?

Indeed, by client I meant the machine running Myrtille, not the end user machine (running the browser). The mouse cursor .cur data is streamed into the browser, then updated there. Your application either use custom cursors, only present into the application path, or into C:\Windows\Cursors.

First search for .cur files into your application path on the remote server. If there are none, copy the whole C:\Windows\Cursors folder from the remote server to the Myrtille machine, same location (make a backup first).

@cedrozor In my case I have Myrtille service and Excel both installed on the same machine/server. Could you please advise what needs to copied where?

@cedrozor - Hello. We too are experiencing this issue of a blurry cursor when we run Myrtille on Windows Server 2022. The issue does not occur on when we run Myrtille on Windows Server 2012 or Windows Server 2019 servers - it only happens on our Windows Server 2022 boxes. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
