CURXPTHEME format details:

Why is it important to know the file format? This is the only way to find out which program to use to open the file. The initial characters of a file are called signature, sometimes also referred to as "magic bytes". The signature can be used to infer the file format. File extension, signature and file format must match; otherwise errors will occur when the file is opened. So you need a detailed analysis of a file to find out the format and the associated program. Our evaluation of the CURXPTHEME files looks like this:

The CURXPTHEME file extension is rarely used and predominantly uses a uniform format. But the following two file formats are common:

• 99% of all CURXPTHEME files internally use the ZIP format, so several files are combined and compressed into one CURXPTHEME file. Most often they are 17 to 20 compressed files. Customary file names are AppStarting.png, Arrow_Down.png, Arrow.png, Button.png, Cross.png, Hand.png, Handwriting.png, Help.png, IBeam.png, NO.png, Scheme.ini, SizeAll.png, SizeNESW.png, SizeNS.png, SizeNWSE.png, SizeWE.png, UpArrow.png and Wait.png. A little tip: If you rename the file extension to .zip and then double-click, you will see the included files and images. The file size is in the range of 37 KB to 470 KB. Several words can almost always be found in the files, e.g. Scheme.iniSD[. The file name Krakin.CurXPTheme or StarWars.CurXPTheme is characteristic of these files. These files are often associated with cursors, aroche, black, comix, azenis, dehnof, blue, star and wars.

The remaining 1% of all CURXPTHEME files are files with no common format. The category is assassin, ragnarok, damned, dragon, white, alienware, invader, light, deep, dtqf or huge.
