- Animated cursor skin
If you like the clean look of the GNOME desktop, this brings its Adwaita cursor set to Windows. The pointer is a simple white arrow with a dark outline, plus animated spinners for busy states, all drawn from SVG sources so it stays sharp at any size. CenterPoint Gaming ported it under the GPLv3, and it runs as a live desktop cursor through Mouse X on Steam. A good pick for Linux users stuck on Windows at work.
“From the GNOME desktop environment. GPLv3 Changes available here .” (CenterPoint Gaming, on the Workshop)

Frequently asked questions
How do I install the Adwaita cursor?
Install Mouse X from Steam, then subscribe to the skin on its Workshop page (or inside the app). Mouse X downloads it and you can apply it with one click. No .cur files, no Control Panel digging.
Does it work on Windows 11?
Yes. Mouse X supports Windows 10 and 11, uses very little memory and CPU, and doesn’t hook or inject into games or other apps, so it runs quietly alongside everything else.
Is this cursor free?
The skin itself is free, like everything on the Mouse X Workshop. Mouse X is $2.99 on Steam, and the free demo lets you try custom cursors before buying.
