It is a "fancy" cursor, created from a PNG file. They can only be used on later versions of Windows, .NET support for cursors got stuck at XP. You can use the code in the dup question to load it. – Hans Passant Jun 15 '15 at 12:08
this is not a duplicated question , I don't want to use P/Invoking... – Abanoub Jun 15 '15 at 12:11
Then you must redesign the cursor. – Hans Passant Jun 15 '15 at 12:16
