Description
Anytime I scale my Windows 7 VM with its own DPI scaling feature, I see 2 cursors: one completely normal and fully functional cursor, and one usually static "busy" Aero cursor. Both are scaled with the settings in the guest, but for some reason nothing I do except revert the scale back to 100% AND rebooting the computer get rid of the second, static cursor. (By "static", I mean if it's supposed to be animated, it isn't, such as the "busy" cursor normally rotating in a circle, but not doing so. It still moves with the normal cursor perfectly fine.)


Just as a sidenote, taking a screenshot of this does not show what it looks like. My best guess is that it's the host cursor trying to "emulate" what the current Windows 7 cursor should look like but failing miserably.
