of Switch with the required Color value.

Switch(
inactiveThumbColor: Colors.red,
),
Example
In the following example, we shall implement a Switch widget with inactive thumb color set to Colors.deepOrangeAccent
.
main.dart
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
void main() => runApp(const MyApp());
/// main application widget
class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
const MyApp({Key? key}) : super(key: key);
static const String _title = 'Flutter Application';
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return MaterialApp(
title: _title,
home: Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(title: const Text(_title)),
body: const MyStatefulWidget(),
),
);
}
}
/// stateful widget that the main application instantiates
class MyStatefulWidget extends StatefulWidget {
const MyStatefulWidget({Key? key}) : super(key: key);
@override
State<MyStatefulWidget> createState() => _MyStatefulWidgetState();
}
/// private State class that goes with MyStatefulWidget
class _MyStatefulWidgetState extends State<MyStatefulWidget> {
bool isSwitched = false;
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Center(
child: Column(
children: <Widget>[
Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.all(50.0),
child: Switch(
inactiveThumbColor: Colors.deepOrangeAccent,
value: isSwitched,
onChanged: (value) {
setState(() {
isSwitched = value;
