What is CUR file?
The .CUR file extension is mainly used for Windows cursor files. They can be produced in a variety of formats including 32-bit, 16-bit and 2-bit color depths. These files typically have a limited color palette and are generally used to store small bitmap images with transparency. Classified as binary type files, the .CUR format is often used for storing animated cursors, which are otherwise known as animated mouse pointers. [ ⏩ ] CUR file extension

How to convert the file from CUR to RCU?
To successfully convert the CUR file to RCU, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.CUR). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case RCU (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than RCU).
What is a file conversion?
A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. CUR to RCU. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.
Program for converting CUR files to RCU files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension RCU, while before this step we had the CUR file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new RCU file, or not.
