anyone notice cursorXP runs better than cursorFX on vista?

with all the outstanding issues, i'm sort of confused. i like cursorFX, but ever since i bought it and upgraded from cursorXP, i have to keep it disabled with all the cursor disappearing issues, the cursorfx cursors and the windows cursor, so basically, half the time i can't see anything

Have you upgraded to 2.0.0.4?  It's solved all of my issues.

yep, didn't fix a thing. i guess i could try and remove it entirely, run the zapper, although i don't know if that thing still works, and try and re-install. let me try that, i'll post back, i just know this disappearing cursor problem, i'm not the only one. and the default windows cursor disappearing, also happenend in cursorXP, but the cursorxp cursors never disappeared so it didn't matter as much

Make sure that you don't still have CursorXP installed. You could be getting conflicts from that end.

actually, cursor XP has never been installed on this box, just replaced my desktop recently, also, it's not like i'm the only 1 reporting these issues, but they do make the program unusable for the most part. i know it's not everyone, and i've offered to test internal builds since i have this issue when it was offered, but never heard back.

The developer was asking around for test builds to be tried out. Would you be willing to partake?

prophetizer I did a test build everythig was fixed on my end. Did you read the CursorFX status thread here WWW Link ? Give them some time to get the new update out.

yea, i read it, and posted on it, i know, it's just hard when a new version made for vista, seems to work worse than cursorxp. i know it will work, it's just annoying to me right now lol

I have 2 Vista machines and CursorXP would not work on either one. Are you using the free one or the Plus version?

ok, i removed it, reinstalled it, seemed to work fine for a bit. it seems things start disappearing when using Remote Desktop. maybe support can look into this

Cursor XP won't work for me on my 32 bit Vista Home Premium. That is why for me, Cursor FX is a matter of life or death regarding cursor use. I'm confident Stardock will fix the app.

also think it might have to do with multiplicity pro

I have MP pro and no issues with CFX after the last build
