Mouse cursor disappears over background in new designer

Hey all - 
 
First off, for context, I am 57. I thought at first the cursor was just too small, so I fiddled with the color/size, but no luck. Whenever I move over the "canvas" in the new designer, the cursor changes to a white hand which is only visible at the edge of the canvas (where there is a slight fade from grey to white) but then just completely transparent unless I move over the top of an action/trigger "module", and it then goes to the normal color. Nothing seems to be broken, but I just cannot see it, even zoomed in. This makes me lose the mouse often and I have to move to the top to position it where I can see it, then slowly move down to get over the action I need to work on.
 
Does this happen to anyone else and if so how have you fixed it (if you have)?
 
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

    Thanks for the response @Pstork1!
     
    That's the first thing I checked (after my glasses hah).
    Looks similar to yours. I thought it was probably pulling from the OS settings also. I am using Edge (browser). Going to try Chrome and see if it persists. I have the white hand, but it literally disappears unless over an object or a darker color. I used magnifiers and still cannot see it against the grid markers (faint dots), only if it's in a "mouseover" state.
     
    I appreciate your answer though. if you celebrate, have a Merry Christmas!

    Mine shows up as a White hand with a black outline.  I think it uses the Operating System settings for the size and coloration of the mouse.  What size etc is your mouse set to in your OS?  These are the settings I use.
