Sorry for the delay. Could you please elaborate the issue. Do you use have the same behaviour with Wired and Wireless mouse.

Also, do you have VMware Tools installed within the Guest VM.

Kindly upgrade the hardware version of the Virtual Machine to 14.

Launch VMware Workstation > Edit > Preferences > Input > Optimize Mouse for Games to "Never".

Fully aware this is old; but want to share what finally solved a similar problem for me.

I have a Razer mouse; had installed the VMware tools. Mouse was incredibly laggy. I installed Razer Synapse; and from that second the mouse worked perfectly.

Similar mice may have software; I'd recommend looking for this, and ensuring drivers are up-to-date.
