Display Mouse Pointer Trail On Windows 8.1

The mouse is a peripheral device on a computer used to point and click on buttons, menus, radio dials, check boxes; to move and resize windows, so forth and so on. In short, the mouse is a controller device that can be used to control anything in the screen. Many years ago, the keyboard was the only means to control anything in the screen until the mouse was incorporated. The mouse is way more convenient to use to move around and control anything in the screen than the keyboard. The mouse uses the x and y axis information for it to pinpoint where the mouse pointer or an object in the screen is located.
