What is a .CUR file?

CUR files are image files saved in the Windows Cursor (CUR) format, which stores static mouse cursor images used by the Microsoft Windows operating system. The format contains pixel-based graphics along with hotspot data that defines the cursor's exact click point. Unlike animated cursor files (.ANI), CUR files display a single, fixed image and are commonly used for standard pointer icons and custom cursor themes.

You may encounter CUR files when customizing your desktop cursor, downloading cursor themes, or working with user interface design elements for Windows applications. File Viewer Plus can open CUR files and convert them to more widely used formats such as PNG, JPEG, and TIFF, making it easier to view and edit the images across different programs.
