How to convert a CUR file to PNG
To convert CUR to PNG, add one cursor file and the tool decodes the embedded image, shows it on screen, and lets you export a PNG. Because conversion runs in your browser, the file stays on your device and is never uploaded.
Alongside the image you can inspect the hotspot — the pixel a cursor clicks from — which is useful when you are documenting or recreating a cursor as an image.
- Add one .cur cursor file
- Inspect the decoded image and hotspot
- Export the PNG locally
What this converter covers
This page is intentionally narrow and honest: it decodes one cursor file, lets you inspect the raster image and hotspot, and exports a PNG. It is not a cursor editor and does not convert PNG back into a .cur file.
It supports the practical cursor entries this wave is designed around — PNG-backed and 32-bit BMP-backed cursors — rather than every legacy cursor encoding ever shipped on Windows.
