Wtf does this do

Windows-11-Cursors-Concept-v2 is a free cursor pack for Windows, giving you a custom set of mouse pointer icons to replace the default Windows cursors. The README is very short and does not describe the visual style of the cursors themselves beyond a single preview image, so beyond it being a concept design distributed as a free download, there is not much detail available about the specific look, sizes, or number of cursor variants included. The pack comes in two folders, one labeled dark and one labeled light, suggesting the cursors are offered in a dark and a light color variant so you can match your Windows theme. Installing them is described as straightforward: open the folder for whichever variant you want, find a file named install inside it, right click on that file, and choose install from the context menu that appears. This is the standard way Windows handles installing cursor scheme files, so no extra software is needed beyond what is already built into the operating system. The README credits an original author and links to their website, asking users to consider supporting them, which suggests this pack is based on or inspired by a cursor design created by someone else, with this repository packaging it up as a free, easy to install download for Windows 11 users. There is no mention of a license, version history beyond the v2 in the repository name, or any details about compatibility with older versions of Windows. Overall this repository functions less as a piece of software and more as a distribution point for a small, ready made customization asset, useful mainly to someone who wants to quickly change the look of their Windows cursor without doing any design work themselves.
