I'm going to make some toturial videos but I couldn't find a good tool to capture my screen with high light cursor and unlimited recording time. Pls help? thanks
 

Have you looked at this one?
 

I use Link Removed since years and made hundreds of tutorials with it.

For short tutorials (up to 10 minutes), you can also use theLink Removed. That produces top quality. The pro version without a time restriction is $199 though. For that recorder you need a lot of CPU muscle on your system because the encoder needs it. At least an i7 is recommended.

If the tutorials are independent of the OS, you could use Linux Mint Mate. That has a very good free recorder. I run it from a USB3 stick and here is an example of a recording. If that is an option, post back and I let you know how to go about it.
 

I know that IceCream Screen Recorder has a cursor highlighting and as far as I understood you can set the limit of free disk space and file size but as for the length there are no limitations
 

I think you should try "Tanida Demo Builder". But it's commercialware tool which will cost you a hundred and 49$. You can try its free demo version (15-day trial).

Thanks.
 

You can use "BSR Screen Recorder" & you may find it here " www. 4sheared.com"
 

Highlight cursor and unlimited recording time remind me of Apowersoft Free Online Screen Recorder. In its recording settings, there is an option for highlighting mouse cursor. And it has no recording time limit.
Link Removed
 

Update: theLink Removedis free now. Microsoft no more charges a fee. That is probably one of the best recorder you can find if you want quality output..It is not fancy, but efficient.

If you want to try it, Here is a little tutorial I made to get you started.

I use the full version of Bandicam, full version costs $39 (one PC license).
Check the quality of my (edited) video's on Link Removed, see my signature.
Play the video's in 1080p or YouTube will ruin my work !

Highlighting the cursor is an option.

Try VideoSolo Screen Recorder, it can let you make video tutorial with highlight cursor. After registering, you can get unlimited recording time.
 

Solution
FoneLab Screen Recorder does what you want including the recording of high light cursor. It works on Windows 10/8.1/8/7 as well as Mac. One article shared top 15 programs to record screen on Windows and Mac

You can give a try for Camtasia or OBS Studio to record a screen on PC or MAC.

I think Camtasia is the best software for making video tutorials but it isn't free. If you need to capture screen with a high light cursor, you can try TunesKit Screen Recorder. It not only provides the options for showing or hiding cursor but also allows you to customize your cursor and clicks.
 

I know this is an old Post by the OP, Just fiogured I add my thoughts here. Without knowing the amount of funds your willing to spend, As "OTT" stated, Bandicam is one of the best at fair price and if you have an Nvidia GPU, you can use .H64 codec along with the .X264 codec and put the load of recording on to the GPU.

And there is also GOM Screen recorder, also at a fair price, and it also has some recording options and works well.
