WINDOWS 10
Let’s go back to talking about windows 10, today we will see how to change the mouse pointer in a few simple steps thanks to an update released in the summer of 2019 that allows, among the many innovations, the possibility to resize and change the color of the mouse cursor. The procedure is simple all you need to do is follow the guide below. First, click on Start and go to the Settings section. In the screen that appears, scroll down the page until you find the Accessibility item. Select Mouse Pointer, here you can change color and size of the cursor.
UBUNTU
From the terminal issue the following command to see which themes are installed:
sudo update-alternatives –config x-cursor-theme
Below type the following command to install dconf editor:
sudo apt-get install dconf-editor
Then open the program by issuing the command from the terminal:
dconf-editor e navigare al seguente percorso:
org.gnome.desktop.interface poi selezionare cursor-theme
Now you can change the color of the mouse pointer. If you want to adjust the size as well you have to select cursor-size at the same path.
macOS
As for the pointer color you need to go to the appstore and download the icursor utility.
For mouse size go to settings-> accessibility-> monitor. Here you can set the size of the pointer.

With the new OS born in the Apple MacOS Ventura house, but I must say from different system versions, even that small gap regarding the setting of the color of the mouse pointer is filled. Before, in fact, it was necessary to resort to third-party utilities. Now just go to Settings -> Accessibility -> Screen where you can change the pointer size, pointer border color and fill color. If you want you can use Spotlight as shown in the video below. That’s all, I must say that with this version of the Operating System with the new Apple M2 chip, life is much easier for end users, I personally bought a MacBook Pro and I must say that I was not amazed by the ease of use, the power calculation and noiseless.
