You can change the colour of the arrow. Black is easy to spot.
Also, if you open 'mouse properties' you can select to 'show location of pointer when I press the CTRL key'. I find that very useful.

Jno's link is for Windows 10. (It's probably much the same for Windows 7). If you're using Windows 11, here's the method to use:

Click the 'Start' icon.

Select 'Settings'

In some versions of Windows 11, you'll see 'Accessibility' in the left-hand panel. If so, click on it.

If 'Accessibility' isn't in that location, click the 'hamburger' (three horizontal lines) at the top of the window and then select 'Accessibility' from there.

Select 'Mouse Pointer & Touch'.

Select the colour you want for your mouse pointer. (Clicking on the yellow one allows you to choose from a range of colours.

Drag the 'Size' slider to the right. As you do so, the size of the pointer that you're dragging with will change, so that you can see what each setting will look like.

When you've achieved the result that you're looking for, simply close the window to confirm your actions.

I was forgetting that there was a Windows 11. I assume that's why I keep finding Bill Gates in my living room in the wee hours, clutching a screwdriver. I'm tired of having to chase him out.

Try freeware sites. Used to be you could select which cursors etc. you wanted from the windows setting. Surely there's a download to suit somewhere. Perhaps search for 'partially sighted' to find larger stuff ?
