Change the default mouse cursor! (lemmy.zip)

After decades of using the standard mouse cursor in Windows, and loosing track of it more and more as displays and resolutions grew, I have finally changed it to black and increased the size of it one step.

I find it so much easier to locate my cursor across my 1440p monitors, it is just clearer what is going on.

In the office I use a turqoice cursor, and at home I use the black cursor, it is a slight annoyance to get used to it, but wow, it is fantastic!

Instead of that, I much prefer "Find My Mouse" in PowerToys.

Let's you double tap ctrl and it will darken the screen except a circle around the mouse.

Changing the cursor gives me flashbacks to the windows xp days when people were changing their cursors to fucking racecars and dinosaurs, usually getting malware in the process.

I get what you mean, and if that works for you, then keep doing it, I just wanted to inform people of a feature that may have missed
