Windows 8 Bring Back the Mouse Pointer Drop Shadow
As Windows 8.1 has adopted a flatter interface, gradients and drop shadows have been removed from a variety of places including the mouse pointer. If you feel that the mouse pointer drop shadow helps make it easier to spot on the Desktop, do the following:1. Access the "Mouse" Control Panel. One way to do this is by pressing Windows + R, entering main.cpl and pressing Enter.
