Mouse utilities is a collection of features that enhance mouse and cursor functionality on Windows.

Find my mouse

Activate a spotlight that focuses on the cursor's position by pressing the Ctrl key twice, using a custom shortcut or by shaking the mouse. Click the mouse or press any keyboard key to dismiss it.
