Microsoft has showcased a redesigned mouse cursor in the latest Windows 11 preview build. The updated pointer appears wider and more symmetrical, featuring softer lines at the bottom left and lacking the traditional elongated tail found in current designs.
The new cursor was spotted in documentation related to cross-device restoration experiences. While the design aligns with the existing Fluent UI System Icons library, specifically the 32px light PDF version, Microsoft has not officially confirmed its replacement of the default system cursor.
The official update notes for build 26340.9354 only mention fixes for cursor customization issues. The company has provided no further details on whether this specific design will be implemented in future stable releases of the operating system.
