How do I show the pointer after touch interaction in Windows 8

When you touch the screen in Windows 8, the mouse pointer is hidden until you move the mouse (or other pointing device). This happens in both desktop and Metro interfaces.

We have a program that allows people to move the mouse pointer using other input methods (such as a joystick), so I need to ensure the mouse pointer is visible.

How can I force the mouse pointer to be displayed?

you can set the flag of touch feedback.

[setting] ->[control panel]->[pen and touch]->[touch feekback] item,there is a checkbox that is [show visual feedback when touch the screen].If you cann't select the checkbox, you can show the mouse pointer without coding anything when touching the screen.
