what file do i needTo open the cursor, open RealWorld Cursor Editor first, click on Tools on the top, go down to File associations.... Click on the file extensions you need and click OK.
- Static cursors are in .cur form.
- Animated cursors are in .ani form.

Hope that helps!

how do you apply the cursor to my mouse?
@Anonymous who wrote:

Hope that helps!
