Most Windows 10 users are happy with the default black and white mouse pointer and its size. In fact, a large number of users are not aware of the fact that Windows 10 allows changing the default size and color of the mouse pointer.

Up until now, Windows 10 offered only black and white color schemes for the mouse pointer. We had to install third-party mouse pointer if we wanted to set a custom color for the mouse pointer.

With Windows 10 build 18298, Microsoft has added a new feature which enables you to set a custom color for mouse pointer and cursor without using third-party utilities.

Complete the given below directions to set a custom color for mouse pointer in Windows 10.
