My normal arrow mouse cursor has somehow morphed into a crosshair, like a white + while in Edit Mode. No idea what happened, I was just modeling something and this new cursor has shown up. It works the same but I miss my arrow cursor. 
In object mode the curser is an arrow, in edit mode it is a cross. This is normal.
Not for me, until now it has always been an arrow. Here is a screenshot I have of before.
Donāt know if I have just been the victim of some weird bug until now or whatā¦

Can you posts a screenshot of the cross curser
I am not sure with your system, yet the problem may be in defining your mouse cursor. I use windows and under control panelā>mouseā> there are options to change how your cursor will look in various modes. The + is used for precision select. It can be changed if you wish, yet I wonder why you would like it any different? Really, it is only an indicator of the mode you are in. See this:

in edit mode, select selection tool ā¦click on it and drag it outsideā¦now you will see different cursors and selection types ā¦choose according to your ease.Thank you

RIP 
today my cursor changed into a crosshair and I canāt change it back. is it even possible to change it back? I really hate using it and it ruins modelling for me.
mine too , what is that?
Iām late, this thread is old, but I donāt care, as a beginner I came passing by this problem.
On the top left of your screen is this dropdown box. Check āObject modeā to get your cursor back to normal.
this is not working. its just how to switch between object mode and edit mode, i have the same problem and dont know how to fix that
Turn off your Caps Lock
tried but didnt work

This saved me so much time thank you
