Research direction
Start by reproducing the reported hover attempts with Appium-Python-Client 2.11.1 on the Windows desktop app, focusing on ActionChains, TouchAction, and w3c_actions.pointer_action.move_to. Check the reported UnknownMethodException and whether TouchAction clicks instead of hovering; done means a supported method hovers the target without clicking.

Description
Environment:
Appium-Python-Client 2.11.1
Windows desktop app,
My Env is Ok, since I have done many automation work
I want to hover on element, I have tried:
ActionChains(self.driver).move_to_element(ele).perform(),
I got an exception:
> raise exception_class(msg=message, stacktrace=format_stacktrace(stacktrace))
E selenium.common.exceptions.UnknownMethodException: Message: Currently only pen and touch pointer input source types are supported
E Stacktrace:
E UnsupportedOperationError: Currently only pen and touch pointer input source types are supported
then I tried:
TouchAction(self.driver).move_to(ele).perform(), I found it directly click the target instead of hover on it!
then I tried:
ActionChains(self.driver).w3c_actions.pointer_action.move_to(ele), and it do not work
Is there any other method to achieve this?
