Hi to every one,

I would like to change the color of the mouse cursor on Visual Studio Community 2022, as I have installed the "dark" theme, which I really like, but the mouse cursor is practically invisible.

How can I go about changing it?

I have already looked at this forum post (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/873767/how-to-change-the-editor-cursor-color-in-visual-st), but it is not the answer I was looking for.

Thanks in advance.

    Hi @Matteo Tomasetti

    Welcome to Microsoft Q&A! 

    Please check Viorel’s reply and consider Windows Settings: Control Panel > Appearance > Ease of Access > Make the mouse easier to use. 

    If it doesn’t meet your requirements, you can try the extension: Visual Studio Color Theme Designer 2022

    Sincerely,

    Anna
