The cursor trail effect in Windows used to be fascinating back in the day, but now it's just trivial. MagicMouseTrails brings this effect back to the spotlight, along with various themes and customization options. Instead of boring cursor trails, you can have stars, snow flakes or other objects left behind your mouse cursor. The best part is that you can control the length of the trial, as well as other aspects.

MagicMouseTrails is offered completely free of charge. There is no installation process to go through, so you only need to extract the application's executable from a ZIP archive and run it. Furthermore, there is no need to install any prerequisite tools and you won't notice any impact on your computer's performance.

The moment you launch MagicMouseTrails, your mouse cursor will start leaving a trail of stars behind it. Each time you start moving the cursor, the stars will have a different color. The trail disappears fairly quick, so you can't really say that it's distracting.

The application's main user interface presents a series of sliders, for controlling the trail's speed, transparency, intensity, size and length. You can also make the stars rotate, as they fade out and set the application to mix the colors of the stars, instead of using a single color each time you move the cursor. If the effect gets in your way in certain situations, you can disable it immediately, by simply ticking an option, on the same interface, or through a system tray icon.

MagicMouseTrails lets you choose between various trail themes. You can opt for different star shapes, but the application is not limited to stars. You can also choose snow flakes, hearts, footballs, jack o'lanterns or bubbles. You can select one of these themes in a drop-down menu, but you can find more on a separate window. All you have to do is click the check box next to the theme you wish to include in the drop-down.

With its high-quality cursor trail effects, MagicMouseTrails can really make you feel like a fairy princess when using a computer.

Pros

You can choose between various cursor trail effects. The application lets you make a wide range of fine adjustments. MagicMouseTrails is lightweight, it doesn't need to be installed and it's free.

Cons

Screenshot utilities can't capture targeted windows while MagicMouseTrails is running.
