cursor-reset

Why we included this project

If you run more than one Cursor account on the same machine, the editor's device identifier tends to stick around: a failed login or a used-up trial follows you no matter how you sign back in. This small Python script, which has zero dependencies, edits the local configuration and generates a fresh device ID, so Cursor treats the machine as brand new and the old restrictions stop carrying over. It backs up the original config before changing anything and lets you set a specific device ID by hand if you want a stable value. The tradeoff is that it only works with Cursor 0.44 and below, so the README walks you through downgrading and blocking the auto-update host before you run it. For anyone locked to that version, it is a practical, narrowly scoped fix rather than a general-purpose tool.
