In this step-by-step tutorial, learn how to customize your mouse cursor in Windows 11. By customizing your cursor, you can make it for both you and your audience to see and follow. We start by looking at how to customize your mouse using settings that come with Windows. You can set your mouse to black, inverted, or even select a color for your mouse. You can adjust the size of your cursor as well. Apps like Teams, Zoom, and Webex will show these customizations that you make. Additionally, we look at some legacy Windows settings that allow you to add a mouse trail and a find mouse sonar effect. Lastly, we install a tool called Microsoft PowerToys and Cursor Highlighter that allow you to highlight your mouse.

Hi Kevin and friends in the audience, another tool to use to highlight your mouse persistently is called Pen Attention. It was also made by a professor at the University of Alaska. Sorry, I don't know his name. It is what I use in my live webinars and tutorial videos.
