An MSI package that adds the Windows 11 Modern Explorer menu for Cursor.

Note

  1. Please restart Windows Explorer after installation.

  2. Installation requires admin rights and accepting UAC prompt to temporarily enable Developer Mode if required and restore its initial status after installation.

  3. If your Cursor is installed in a custom location, you have to add the custom location to the PATH environment variable before installing this extension, otherwise you need to fork this repository and modify the path of Cursor.exe to support your custom location.
