Stop Themes From Modifying Cursors And Icons In Windows 7

While having fun with Windows 7 you might have tried various new themes. Some themes change the appearance of your desktop and there are some that also modify your cursors and icons. If you don’t want them (cursors & icons) to be modified then follow these simple steps:

• Right Click on your desktop and click Personalize.

• In the Personalization window, first click on Change Mouse Pointers(on the left).

• The Mouse Properties window will open. Here, uncheck  “Allow themes to change mouse pointers” and click OK. This will prevent the modification of cursors/pointers.

• Now go back to the Personalization window and click on Change desktop icons .
