Stuck in windowed fullscreen
Players on the official bug forum describe a windowed-fullscreen mode that captures the mouse and will not return to the desktop. The thread is the source. I am summarizing the workarounds those posts repeat, not a patch I watched land.
Workarounds named in the thread
Alt+Enter is the toggle people report for leaving fullscreen. If the cursor still never appears, posts in that thread move the game to a bordered window from the options, or they alt-tab after changing the mode. A Portuguese spelling “windowned” is the same bug.
This is not a Nintendo Switch issue. The console question is Switch.
If the mode keeps reverting after a restart, the same thread says the windowed-fullscreen choice is not saved. Set a bordered window, exit to the desktop once, and enter again. I am not claiming that sequence is a publisher fix. It is the player pattern written in that bug report, and it is the only pattern I am willing to repeat.
FAQ
How do I get my mouse back?
Try Alt+Enter, then switch the display mode to windowed in options. That is the pattern in the bug thread.
