What is a CUR file?

CUR is a cursor file format used by Windows to display custom mouse pointer icons. It’s structurally similar to ICO files but includes metadata for cursor positioning and animation.

CUR files are small and lightweight, often used to customize the look and feel of desktop interfaces.

How to open CUR files

CUR files can be opened and edited with software like RealWorld Cursor Editor, Axialis CursorWorkshop, or even some icon editors. Windows also allows you to set CUR files as pointers through the Control Panel.

If you want to convert CUR to a more common image format for editing or display, AnyConv can help with that in seconds.
