How to transfer your Cursor data and chats to another new pc

I bought a new system. Does Cursor store chat and indexing data in the cloud, along with user information, etc., because I want to transfer all my data to the new computer.

Thanks!

Hi @KnittyDev currently the best way to do is to do this manually, note that paths of project folders are hashed so they should have same location on the new machine.

  • Windows: %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Cursor* and %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Cursor*
  • MacOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Cursor and ~/.cursor.json
  • Linux: ~/.cursor and ~/.config/Cursor/
