- Static cursor skin
This one takes your pointer back to the classic white arrow with the black outline, drawn pixel for pixel the way old desktops used to look. Hershell kept it clean and a little chunky, so it reads well even on modern high resolution screens, and you can tweak the size to fit. It runs as a live desktop cursor through Mouse X on Steam. Great pick for retro computing fans or for people who miss that older interface style.
“Works Better, Plays Better.” (Hershell, on the Workshop)

Frequently asked questions
How do I install the Windows 98 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.
