how to replace arrow cursors in roblox texture

To replace the arrow cursors in Roblox texture files, open the Roblox install folder, go to Content > Textures > Cursors > KeyboardMouse, then replace the existing cursor images with your new PNGs named to match the originals. Tutorials that show this method consistently use the same two files: the normal arrow cursor and the “far” arrow cursor, and they emphasize keeping the filenames exact so Roblox loads them correctly.

Steps

  1. Find your Roblox folder and open the player’s file location.
  1. Navigate to Content > Textures > Cursors > KeyboardMouse.
  1. Back up the original cursor files first so you can restore them later.
  1. Rename your custom cursor images to match Roblox’s original cursor filenames exactly.
  1. Drag the new files into the folder and choose replace when prompted.

File names

The two cursor files you usually need to replace are the normal arrow cursor and the far arrow cursor. Some guides also note that if you want a static cursor look, you can use the same image for both files.

Image tips

A few tutorials recommend using PNG files and resizing them to 64 x 64 for cleaner results.

If the cursor looks wrong in-game, the most common issue is a filename mismatch or putting the files in the wrong folder.

TL;DR: Replace the cursor PNGs in Roblox’s Content > Textures > Cursors > KeyboardMouse folder, keep the original names, and confirm the file replace prompt.
