If you've ever used a Linux desktop and missed that clean white pointer on Windows, this one brings it over. FrickFrack recreated the Adwaita cursor set, the look GNOME users will recognize, with soft rounded edges and a smooth animated busy spinner in place of the blue Windows circle. It runs as a live desktop cursor via Mouse X on Steam, so it replaces your pointer everywhere. Good pick for developers who dual boot, or anyone who likes quiet, tidy design.

“This is the GNOME desktop cursor set, Adwaita.” (FrickFrack, on the Workshop)

How to get it

  1. Install Mouse X from Steam. The free demo works too.
  2. Subscribe to this skin on its Workshop page, or find “Adwaita” in the in-app browser.
  3. Select it in Mouse X and your Windows cursor changes instantly. No hooks, no injection.

Frequently asked questions

How do I install the Adwaita 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.
