I have two cursors / cursorFX and Icon Packager?

from Stardock Forums

Hello!

I recently purchased Cursor FX and very happy with it.
At the same time I am also running the 30 day trial of Icon Packager and debating whether to purchase it after or not. The folders etc customization are great but I'm having problems with my cursor.

Basically there are 2 cursors, the customized one and the windows one on top.
I wonder if it's because in the theme I use in Icon packager it has the windows default cursor and somehow it adds that one on top? Could that be? Or maybe something is wrong in Cursor FX?
I can't find a way to disable it or let it go away.
I've already unchecked "cursors" in the things to show in the theme but that didn't do anything.

here is a picture 

Strangely enough I had to take it with my phone cause if I take a screenshot, the windows cursor doesnt appear in the image.. i wonder if that means something.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Just to add in, I decided to go into Icon Packager and change all of the default mouse icons with a transparent mouse icon I've created.
After this the problem is gone so it was clearly using both cursors.

Being both released by Stardock, I'd assume they'd want to introduce a way for the two softwares to recognize each other or something in case someone uses both :)

I also have this problem where both cursors appear, don't think i'll be buying the packages after the trial.  The Deskscapes config panel also won't shown up until i disable windowblinds, which is absurd.  Their own progs interfering with each other is crazy lol

Hello,

Sorry to hear you are having issues. Just want to know more. Is any of you have the display set at 150% or more?

Thanks

Hello,

Sorry to hear you are having trouble.

The issue has nothing to do with IP and everything to do with issues with CFX post MS updates.

If you change the Windows mouse schema (try a few), and reapply the CFX theme, does it still happen?

Was asked to relay information with regard on this dual cursor issue..

"With the release of the Windows 10 2018 Fall update : V1809 (if you have it yet), do you still have this issue with CursorFX? We have reports that it was resolved with this update.

Thank you,

Ugh, funny thing is Stardock even sells Deskcapes and Windowblinds (and a bunch of others) as a discounted package, even though they don't appear to work with each other.  *sigh*

I have Deskscape and Windowblinds and it both run on my machine without a problem. What is the issue you are facing? Maybe we can help you.

Thank you,
