Remember the chunky arrow from the Windows 95 era? This skin takes that classic shape and flips it to a dark near-black fill with a light outline, so it keeps the retro pixel look without blinding you. If you run dark mode everywhere but miss the old Windows look, this sits right at home, and it stays visible on bright pages and pale wallpapers. Made by leon.stan, it runs as a live desktop cursor via Mouse X on Steam ($2.99 once, free demo, every Workshop skin included).

Frequently asked questions

How do I install the old windows [dark] 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.
