Highlight Cursor During Presentations
Are there any plans for Microsoft to incorporate the ability to highlight a presenter's mouse cursor. A basic yellow halo and possibly have the ability to use "focus" to draw the viewer's attention ...

DavidDoyle There is an free app in the Microsoft store that works:
Link: below, or search for "mouse highlight" in the store.

There is also a more capable version created using AutoHotKey:

PowerToys require an extra instalation, which ist mostly impossible on corporate computers without special permision. So it does not solve the main problem.
For example in company I work for two years ago I requested for permision for instalation "App Mouse pointer highlight im MS Store" and gues what, I still do not have it.

Jul 10, 2023Hi Pawel, most organizations are likelier to allow you to install an app built by Microsoft rather than a random 3rd party app like "app mouse pointer highlight in Microsoft store." I would try submitting a request to install this Microsoft software and see how it goes.
