Custom Cursor Installer

A PowerShell script to automate the installation of custom cursors on Windows.

Features

• Installs custom cursors and applies them automatically.
• Refreshes the cursor scheme without requiring a restart or logout.
• Minimizes unnecessary error pop-ups.
• Includes two new animated cursors: person.ani and pin.ani.
• Provides a seamless experience when applying the UwU cursor scheme.

Requirements

• PowerShell execution policy must allow running scripts (ExecutionPolicy Bypass recommended).
• Windows 10/11.
• PowerShell running as Administrator.

Installation

1. Download the files:

   • Option 1: Download the ZIP from the Releases.

   • Option 2: Clone the repository using:

     git clone https://github.com/ajsem1337/CustomCursorInstaller.git

2. Run the script: Open PowerShell as Administrator, navigate to the folder where the script is located, and run:

   cd path\to\CustomCursorInstaller
   powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\InstallCursor.ps1

3. Automatic scheme application

The script applies the UwU cursor scheme automatically.

No additional user interaction is required.
The Mouse settings window is opened for preview only.

Do NOT click OK or Apply — the scheme is already active and clicking these buttons may trigger a Windows prompt to overwrite the current scheme.

Notes

• Cursor scheme now refreshes automatically The script forces Windows to apply the new scheme without requiring a logout or reboot.

• Proper scheme registration The script registers the cursor scheme correctly in the Windows registry, so it appears normally in Mouse settings without showing None.

• Less intrusive error messages The script minimizes unnecessary pop-ups, providing a smoother installation experience.

• New cursors added The person.ani and pin.ani cursors were missing in the original pack and have been created and included in this update.

• Contributions welcome If you have ideas for improving the script, feel free to submit a pull request!
