Uninstaller

[MentalGear]

Since the app uses a custom installer (buh!) instead of a .dmg, I was hoping there was also a proper uninstaller to remove all traces from the app. I couldn't find one and had to use app cleaner.

I think you should just be able to delete Cursor from the applications folder?

There will also be a ~/.cursor directory that you could delete if you like (it has your extensions in it).

(Btw pls let us know if you have any thoughts/feedback/or if you ran into any bugs; would love to fix)

Deleting ~/.cursors didn't do the job for me. I also had to remove ~/Library/Application Support/Cursor and ~/Library/Application Support/Cursor Nightly.

(was just debugging an issue and needed a clean install, I like the product)

So far what i found was:

/usr/local/bin/cursor
~/Library/Application\ Support/Cursor
~/Library/Application\ Support/Cursor\ Nightly
~/.cursor
~/.cursor-tutor
~/.config/Cursor

People, please add to it as you find more

I'm hoping to get a clean install of Cursor to revert the decision of changing keychord bindings that was made in the initial installation. Reinstalling and removing all the folders mentioned in this thread doesn't work, the reinstalled Cursor still has the new keychord bindings and I'm no longer given the choice to remap it or not.

Which other folders or files need to be cleanly removed?

There's also ~/.config/Cursor. Removing this directory along with the others mentioned in this issue allowed me to get a clean start (Linux).

in my case Cursor was in /opt after find it i was remove it

sudo rm cursor.png
sudo rm /opt/cursor.appimage

also finded it again with

 ls ~/.config | grep -i cursor
ls ~/.local/share | grep -i cursor

and removed again with :

rm -rf ~/.config/cursor
rm -rf ~/.local/share/cursor

I searched through my computer and found so many files of Cursor even tough I have removed Cursor from my computer. It really annoyed me.

[felipecastrosales]

any unique command?

[MrGreedyPot]

The uninstall process is a joke At this point it's basically malware lmao

[rushil-b-patel]

find / -type f -iname "Cursor*" -executable 2>/dev/nul

Try this and remove those files/folder/app image.
