    Trying to Reset the Preview on .cur files


    I recently tried to open a .cur file with paint to see if it could edit the file, but it set paint as the default app and now it no longer previews the cursor image. I'd like to return the preview image so please help.

    :)

    .cur & .ani files not showing thumbnail after assign "Open With"


    I did what you said. The .jpg files changed as they should. But the .cur files took on the program icon and won't go back to thumbnail. I don't know how to reset just the .cur files...so I have to reset all default apps in settings to make it clear, which means I have to re-associate all other files to my liking. Evidently your PC doesn't have this issue.

    Here's what I have now (changing only the .cur files...I left the .ani files alone)
