I'd like for my program to be able to override the maximum imposed mouse size of 32x32 much like the program in the picture attached does, the cursor pictured is 72x72. This is a capture from ProcMon showing what's going on when the cursors change.
However, if I try to change the registry values for the cursor files myself and then push the changes using
SystemParametersInfo(SPI.SPI_SETCURSORS, 0, IntPtr.Zero, SPIF.SPIF_SENDCHANGE);
then the cursor will change, but it's still limited to the 32x32 maximum size. How was this program able to get around that restriction? Also, the cursors remain after the program ends, so it can't be something it's doing while running, but must override a setting somewhere.
Thanks for your help, I haven't been able to find ANYTHING like this on the net, so I don't even know if anyone will have the answer.
EDIT: I see some access to a file called C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Imageres.dll. They're only reads, but maybe these cursors are stored in here, or they modified this file somehow. But I figured it might get someone with more experience than myself off on the right track.
EDIT 2: I believe the sizes are dictated by the SM_CXCURSOR and SM_CYCURSOR variables. If I could find a way to set these, I might be in business. Going to write a quick program to get me those values on the PC with the program running and huge mouse cursor and see what it returns...
EDIT 3: No luck; the PC with the huge cursor returns 32x32 for it's SM_CXCURSOR and SM_CYCURSOR.
