Change Cursor

Hello,

it was once upon a time in the Win7PE SE forest, a little Nexus who want to change the ugly and evil Aero Cursor ... 

Well I'm looking to switch the Aero cursor to the Classic version

To do that in Win7 I just need to set Sheme to None and uncheck the Pointer Shadows Box 

To set the Sheme to none and disable the cursor shadows I try this code.

Code: [Select]

RegWrite,HKLM,0x3,"Tmp_default\Control Panel\Desktop","UserPreferencesMask","9e,1e,01,80,12,00,00,00"
RegWrite,HKLM,0x4,"Tmp_default\Control Panel\Cursors","Scheme Source",0

The shadow is disabled but the Sheme is always Aero 


I try directly change the cursor in the registry

Code: [Select]

RegWrite,HKLM,0x2,"Tmp_default\Control Panel\Cursors",AppStarting,"#$pSYSTEMROOT#$p\Cursors\wait_m.curr"

Not working 

After I try the Cursors.script by DarkPhoeniX. It's working but just 2sec after booting the Busy ,Wait and Working cursors are replaced by the Aero version. 

But if I use in the same time the xDisplay.script ... It's working !!! My cursor is replaced but I have now the Aero theme for windows 

I hate Aero 

Any idea how to kill on for good the Aero cursor ? 

As suggested earlier, If you use
Gena\Utils\"Share Plugins" -> 'Share Plugins With' - Win7PESE
You will notice
SE\ComponentsY\Tweaks\"Cursors" by Galapo.
SE\ComponentsG\Tweaks\"Cursors" by Galapo.

See how this works ????????


ps: Later I feel better change this plugin title to "Mouse Cursors" 

And it's works, the shadows is gone but the Disk no 

I don't understand "Disk no" ....

I don't understand "Disk no" ....

Sorry ! French expression 

English translation > "the pointer shadow is gone but the aero pointer with the blue/green circle stay" 

Good,

Now I understand French expression,
next step is,
You follow rest on previous post.   

Just for reference, I re post here too:

To set the Sheme to none and disable the cursor shadows I try this code.

Since we have a new syntax for a while,
 Better not use above code,
  this can overwrite other visual etc. settings made by other plugins..

Checking internet, mouse shadow is at bit13 (reverse bit)
13/8=1+5 -> 2nd byte Bit5
we want Bit5=0

Code: [Select]

Call,RegWriteBinaryBit,2,5,0,HKLM,0x3,"Tmp_Default\Control Panel\Desktop",UserPreferencesMask

Call,RegWriteBinaryBit
syntax at
Macro Library --> Call topic

Call,RegWriteBinaryBit,2,5,0,HKLM,0x3,"Tmp_Default\Control Panel\Desktop",UserPreferencesMask
Call,RegWriteBinaryBit

Ouaa !! That look like "Why make it simple when you can make it complicated ?"   

Code: [Select]

RegWrite,HKLM,0x3,"Tmp_default\Control Panel\Desktop","UserPreferencesMask","9e,1e,01,80,12,00,00,00"

This code may be obsolete but at least it's understandable. 



Any way I find a solution change the cursor one for all. 

Change the cursor data with "Resource Hacker" in the file "winpeshl.exe" located in the folder "system32".

Not a pretty solution but a working one. 

Ouaa !! That look like "Why make it simple when you can make it complicated ?"   

It IS simple ,
with a good reason behind,
not to overwrite other settings by other tweak plugins.
 UserPreferencesMask value contains ~15 (maybe x64 some more than 15) settings.
   You change only 1 of them, and overwrite others !!!!
     Not a correct solution, only usable for a personal plugin.
