Hello! I'm going to teach you how to get whatever cursor you want.

First, figure out what you want as a cursor. I'm going to be changing mine to a Skyrim mouse.

So first you get a picture of whatever you want, as clean as possible:

Image ID: A screenshot of Skyrim, with a text box on it that reads "The save game is corrupt and cannot be loaded." Importantly, the mouse cursor is fully visible. End IDALT

Open your favorite art program and clean it up, then save as a png:

Image ID: The cursor from Skyrim, with a transparent background. End IDALT

Then go here and convert it to a .cur file. Make sure there's no gap between the corner of the arrow and the corner of the png.

Next you go to Control Panel:

Image ID: A screenshot of the Windows search screen, where a blue icon labeled "Control Panel" is highlighted. End IDALT

Select Mouse from the list:

Image ID: A Control Panel window with rows of icons in alphabetical order. The one for "Mouse" is highlighted. End IDALT

Then go to the Pointers tab and pick whichever mouse cursor you want to replace.

Image ID: The Mouse Properties window, on the second tab labeled "Pointers," the cursor for "Normal Select" highlighted. End IDALT

Click "Browse..." and find the .cur file you made earlier:

Image ID: The Mouse Properties window, on the second tab labeled "Pointers," the cursor for "Normal Select" highlighted. It now displays the Skyrim cursor. End IDALT

And voila! I now have a Skyrim cursor.

You may have to tinker with the size a bit to get the point to be accurate. If that happens, just resize your png and convert to .cur again.

Happy customization!

fun things for later
