PNG to CUR Converter

Purpose-built tool to transform PNG images into Windows CUR cursor files. It targets developers and designers who need precise cursor assets for applications, installers, or theming. Conceptually, the tool reads PNG pixel data, applies user-defined hotspot coordinates, and packages the data into the CUR file format that Windows recognizes. The process preserves transparency when present and enforces size and hotspot constraints to ensure cursor accuracy. Core value lies in delivering a reliable, standards-compliant conversion with predictable results across Windows environments. Use cases include creating custom cursors for software installers, desktop themes, or game UIs where branding or usability benefits from a tailored cursor. Unique value comes from explicit hotspot handling, support for common cursor sizes, and optional batch processing for multiple assets without manual repetition. Core features include input file validation, hotspot configuration, size validation, optional scaling, and a clean output with correct header metadata for immediate use in Windows. The tool focuses on correctness, interoperability, and developer-friendly outputs, enabling repeatable workflows for UI optimization and accessibility testing when cursor visuals must align with a brand or product line.
