CursorFX and every other Stardock program has been working flawlessly for me running Windows7 64bit.

The only problems I have heard of are from poeple not having the correct version of programs.

Working well for me on 64-bit W7.

Just don't use it together with Multiplicity.

So that you can try before you buy, there is a free version of CursorFX available for download here:

It works great for me and I wouldn't do without it. I could never go back to the (boring) default Windows cursor.

Thanks everybody, I'll give it a whirl

G'day

I was having problems with CursorFX & upped for the Plus version, but I'm still in the same boat.

1 .. I can't delete any cursors from My Cursors. Cicked the X (delete), confirmed that I wanted to remove, but it lives on.

2 .. Neither the Stardocks website, nor the email link buttons work.

To make it worse, I'm a computer bonehead, with a newish Windows 7 Ultimate install & had enough time to mess with stuff that I don't understand. : S

Any fix recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

BTW, I'm still getting those trialware reminders at startup, even though I've upgraded to paid versions of Object Desktop & CursorFX Plus.

Cheers from Downunder

It sounds like you didn't uninstall the free version first. Uninstall CFX using Impulse, run CCleaner or something similar, reboot, then reinstall CFX again using Impulse.

You're a legend Wiz, the reminder notice has gone now.

I've written myself a note that I should install my Object Desktop thingies one at a time, & only install the next one, once I've got a grasp of what's already installed. I was like a kid in a lolly shop yesterday & got myself totally confused, but I'm absolutely lov'n the "Digital Grey trans" theme from Windows Blinds.

late update: I was still having issues with some functions not working on CursorFX Plus, so I did a complete uninstall of everything, including Object Desktop, the lot. I then ran CCleaner again, but still found leftovers when I ran a search for Stardock. After manually deleting all traces, I rebooted & downloaded Impulse. Installed CursorFX Plus, everything works a treat & I'm over the moon.

Thanks for your help here & to all contributors.

Yeah, a legend in his own mind!

Thanks mate, I'm lov'n everything about this software & it's community.

I've dabbled in Linux & loved it's inherent freedom of customisation, but not had the skills to undo some (minor) knots that can come with it. You guys've taken me out of the public housing Microsoft environment (ghetto) & given me the renovation skills along with a blank cheque budget, to live wherever I want, in any house that I desire, for an extremely reasonable outlay & no fine print.

I'm in Heaven if you need to contact me.

It works on win 7 64 bit, but I haven't been able to get the cursor to be recognized by flash player10 in chat rooms when trying to turn on my webcam. I had to uninstall it, or not use my cam, cause when you open your cam in a flash chat, you must accept flash player to access your cam. Since this window doesn't recognize the cursor, you can neither accept, nor deny flash player, and you get stuck on a grayed out screen, and have to reload the page.

I have uninstalled, and reinstalled it a number of times, and every time I reinstall, this problem occurs. I also have an XP machine that doesn't have this issue. So it seems to be a win7 problem??? BTW this win7 PC is less than a week old, only fences, logon studio,and PSP X3 are installed on it. Outside that, it's a stock machine. I had to remove cursorFX to avoid this issue, even switching back to the windows default cursor through cursorFX prevents it from being recognized unless you uninstall cursorFX. I should say this is the free version of cursorFX, don't know if that makes a diff???
