How to open ICURSORFX file?

The most common problem when using ICursor Effect Format is that a specific ICURSORFX is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open ICURSORFX, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the ICURSORFX file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.

Step 1. Install iCursor

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that iCursor is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name iCursor into the system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open ICURSORFX files.

Programs to open ICURSORFX file

Remember to download programs supporting ICURSORFX files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of iCursor with ICURSORFX files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the ICURSORFX file to open in the iCursor application, but you can set it manually. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the ICURSORFX file with the iCursor program.

Step 3. Update iCursor to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the iCursor program, it is possible that ICursor Effect Format requires a newer version of the program.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ICURSORFX file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the ICURSORFX file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file ICURSORFX or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected ICURSORFX file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the ICURSORFX file. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular ICURSORFX file corruption.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted ICURSORFX files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the ICURSORFX file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the ICURSORFX file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the ICURSORFX file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
