Cursor Installer Creator

Cursor Installer Creator builds distributable Windows cursor schemes from individual cursor files. Packaging one by hand means collecting the .cur and .ani files, mapping each one to the system role it should replace, and writing the .inf file that Windows uses to register the scheme — tedious work that is easy to get wrong. This application handles that assembly and produces a self-contained package that anyone can install with a right-click, or apply directly to the machine it is running on. It is intended for people who create or redistribute custom cursor sets.

System changes made by the app

• Choosing Install Cursor copies the selected cursor files into %WINDIR%\Cursors and updates the current user's cursor scheme under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Cursors. This requires administrator approval (UAC) and only happens when you explicitly start an install.
• Creating a package (folder, ZIP, or installer) only writes to the location you choose and makes no system changes.

Privacy Policy

Cursor Installer Creator does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data.

• Update check: On Windows, the desktop app contacts the public GitHub Releases API (https://api.github.com/repos/Der-Floh/Cursor-Installer-Creator/releases/latest) once at startup to compare your installed version against the latest release. The request sends only a generic User-Agent header — no personal data, telemetry, or analytics.
• No accounts or tracking: The app has no user accounts, ads, or third-party analytics.
• Opt out / offline use: The app is fully functional offline. The update check is the only outbound request the app makes; you can prevent it by blocking network access to api.github.com. The web version performs no update check.
