How to flip mouse cursor?












3















I have switched to left hand mouse on my Windows 8.1 OS, anf I feel it uncomfortable with the mouse cursor slanting towards the left.
Is there a way to somehow flip it horizontally so that it will be slanting to the right?

  • You used to be able to do it in Win7 by changing the icons for each action but they've retired the project now. Not sure if there's a project for Win8. Here's the WI7 Aero version: howtogeek.com/howto/15833/…

  • I doubt it will, as this is something that is not influenced by the shape of your pointer. Have a look here: answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-desktop/… You can change handedness in Tablet PC Settings configuration dialog (Even if you do not have a Tablet PC). This does NOT change context menu behaviour in programms such as firefox, just the windows standard one!
