Can I change the White Balance of a pic I've already taken?

Hi, everyone, was out today shooting and after having taken a few shots I completely love, I realized later that the WB was on incandescent and not Auto, which has left the pics a little on the blue side. Can I edit the WB of a picture I've already taken somehow in the camera? Thanks so much. I have a D7500.

I am not sure this is a D7500 specific question, but you can usually change the white balance with software.
I know I can do it in darktable.
Is this a jpg? or raw file?

if you shoot RAW then you certainly can with just about any software that processes it. Your starting point is what the camera set for WB but everything is available. Not so with JPEG.

Welcome to the site!

Yes, you can edit the WB of RAW images in camera. The output will be in JPG format. In the long run you might be better off getting a non-destructive editor and learning that. I also use darktable but many other use an Adobe product like Lightroom. There are pros and cons of different products. There also may be programs which came with the camera.
