What it is AI-extracted, prompt v1, taxonomy v1, 2026-08-30, confidence not recorded

A VS Code/Cursor editor extension that fakes or resets the machine ID used by the Cursor editor for device identification. It is distributed as a .vsix package and invoked via the command palette.

Use cases

  • reset cursor machine id
  • fake device id in cursor editor
  • bypass cursor trial restrictions
  • regenerate machine identifier for cursor
  • fix cursor trial expired error
  • change device fingerprint in cursor

When to choose

  • you use the Cursor editor and need to reset its machine-level identification
  • you want a quick command-palette-based machine ID reset without manual file editing

When to avoid

  • you need a general-purpose machine ID tool outside the Cursor editor
  • your usage may violate the software's terms of service or licensing agreements
