Default Where are pointer schemes?


I would like to export a pointer scheme called MINE defined in
Control Panel > Mouse > PointerSchemes but I could not find any file
or folder with that name. Maybe it is in the Registry?

Your help is MUCH appreciated. Thanks- bye- Larry

try HKCU\Control Panel\Cursors\Schemes

Its just a listing of the cur and ani files that make up the scheme.

Should also be in a *.theme file in %appdata%\Microsoft\Windows\Themes or
C:\Documents and Settings\Your Name Here\Application
Data\Microsoft\Windows\Themes

Possibly named Custom.theme.

You can open *.theme files with Notepad, listed under [Control
Panel\Cursors]

Was there & had:
[Control Panel\Cursors]
Arrow=%WinDir%cursors\arrow_rl.cur
Help=%WinDir%cursors\help_rl.cur
AppStarting=%WinDir%cursors\wait_rl.cur
Wait=%WinDir%cursors\busy_rl.cur
NWPen=%WinDir%cursors\pen_rl.cur
No=%WinDir%cursors\no_rl.cur
SizeNS=%WinDir%cursors\size4_rl.cur
SizeWE=%WinDir%cursors\size3_rl.cur
Crosshair=%WinDir%cursors\cross_rl.cur
IBeam=%WinDir%cursors\beam_rl.cur
SizeNWSE=%WinDir%cursors\size2_rl.cur
SizeNESW=%WinDir%cursors\size1_rl.cur
SizeAll=%WinDir%cursors\move_rl.cur
UpArrow=%WinDir%cursors\up_rl.cur
DefaultValue=Windows Black (extra large)
Link=

Got 2 XPs & want union of 2 curser sets so I'll export above list &
curser directory to 2nd XP where I'll union it & pick best of 2 sets.

Your help is MUCH appreciated. Thanks- bye- Larry
