I know how to do the basic customization of the cursor, I have changed all of that. what I want now is to customize all the rest of the cursors, like grab, zoom-in, and especially middle mouse scroll. (the circle with the arrows when you middle click) I want to know if there is any way.

To clarify not the cursors under “Settings -> Mouse -> Additional Mouse Properties -> Pointers.” Those I have already done. It’s the others like the grabbing hand and the magnifying glass.

  • This is a cool program, but unfortunately it only changes the basic cursor stuff like "move", "resize", "select", "arrow", all of that is in settings already. It doesn't have the zoom-in or any of the other more obscure cursors i was looking for

Aside from the 17 system-wide cursors that you have already found, each program that uses additional cursors provides its own, stored as resources in the program’s files.

Modifying those hard-coded cursors requires a resource editor/compiler. Two that I like are Resource Hacker and Greenfish Icon Editor Pro (which does cursors too).

Note that cursors are not necessarily in the program’s main .exe. For example, Firefox cursors are in C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\xul.dll.

  • Aaaah thank you!!! I'll definitely check those programs out. So they are Chrome cursors? I understand now! Do you happen to know where Chromes are located?
