Remarks
For windows: If you don't know what type of architecture your system uses (32-bit/x86 or 64-bit/x64), download the x86 version as it is compatible with both of them.
For both Linux and Windows: If for any reason the executable placed in the root folder doesn't work as expected, you can use a different executable that can be found in "MouseMoverData" folder. The executable in the root folder serves as a shortcut to the real one.
