How It Works

Cursor tracks devices using several identifiers stored locally:

1. machineid - Primary device fingerprint
2. storage.json - Contains telemetry IDs:
   • telemetry.machineId
   • telemetry.macMachineId
   • telemetry.devDeviceId
   • telemetry.sqmId
3. Local Storage - LevelDB database with trial data
4. Session Storage - Session-specific identifiers
5. Windows Registry - MachineGuid (Windows only)

This tool regenerates all identifiers, clears storage databases, and updates the registry (on Windows).
