🚀 One-Click Solution

Global Users

macOS

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/yuaotian/go-cursor-help/refs/heads/master/scripts/run/cursor_mac_id_modifier.sh -o ./cursor_mac_id_modifier.sh && sudo bash ./cursor_mac_id_modifier.sh && rm ./cursor_mac_id_modifier.sh

Linux

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/yuaotian/go-cursor-help/refs/heads/master/scripts/run/cursor_linux_id_modifier.sh | sudo bash 

Note for Linux users: The script attempts to find your Cursor installation by checking common paths (/usr/bin, /usr/local/bin, $HOME/.local/bin, /opt/cursor, /snap/bin), using the which cursor command, and searching within /usr, /opt, and $HOME/.local. If Cursor is installed elsewhere or not found via these methods, the script may fail. Ensure Cursor is accessible via one of these standard locations or methods.

Windows

Tip (Windows): If you suspect a cached old script (mirror/proxy cache), append a timestamp query parameter to bypass cache:

irm "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/yuaotian/go-cursor-help/refs/heads/master/scripts/run/cursor_win_id_modifier.ps1?$(Get-Date -Format yyyyMMddHHmmss)" | iex

这是什么东西?一个命令行工具,当 Cursor 编辑器以“可疑活动”或试用次数已达上限等提示把你拦下时,它可以重置 Cursor 的免费试用,方法是让 Cursor 把你的电脑当成一台全新的设备。
它是 Cursor 里的扩展,还是一个单独的程序?它是一个单独的程序,不是插件:一个脚本或预编译好的可执行文件,在终端里运行,用来修改 Cursor 自己的 storage.json 配置文件。
我怎么运行它?打开一个管理员终端,运行 README 里适合你系统的一键脚本:它会安装这个工具并立即重置试用。GitHub Releases 里也提供了适配各种操作系统和 CPU 的预编译可执行文件。
我需要先装 PowerShell 或者有管理员权限吗?Windows 上需要管理员权限的终端:脚本优先使用 PowerShell 7(可以通过 Winget 安装),如果没有就退回到系统自带的 Windows PowerShell。在 macOS 和 Linux 上,普通终端就够了。
它对我的 Cursor 版本有效吗?它针对的是 Windows、macOS 和 Linux 上目前的 Cursor 2.x.x 版本,README 也让你在运行前先确认自己的 Cursor 版本。更旧的版本不在支持范围内。
它会动我电脑上 Cursor 之外的东西吗?在 Windows 上,它还会改写 Windows 用来识别你设备的 MachineGuid 注册表项,不过修改前会自动备份原始值。这一步需要管理员权限。
它到底改了什么来重置试用?它往 Cursor 的 storage.json 里写入全新的唯一值,覆盖 telemetry.machineId、telemetry.macMachineId、telemetry.devDeviceId 和 telemetry.sqmId 这几项,这样 Cursor 就会把这台电脑当作一台带全新试用的新设备。
README 里还在卖 Cursor 会员和 Codex API 套餐,那是这个工具的一部分吗?不是,那是作者通过 Telegram 单独出售的付费服务。重置工具本身是免费的,采用 MIT 许可证。
如果我的 Cursor 在 Linux 上装在了非标准位置怎么办?脚本只会在常见位置(/usr/bin、/usr/local/bin、$HOME/.local/bin、/opt/cursor、/snap/bin)以及用 which cursor 命令里查找,所以自定义安装可能会找不到;请让 Cursor 位于标准路径下。
README 为什么会教怎么关闭 Cursor 的自动更新?这是一个可选的手动步骤,防止更新把重置结果撤销掉:关闭 Cursor,删除本地 AppData 里的 cursor-updater 文件夹,再建一个同名的空文件。macOS 和 Linux 用户也可以对自己的 cursor-updater 目录照做。
