You can use 0.45 with the below instructions:
1- Download 0.45 from https://www.cursor.com/downloads
2- Install it
3- to prevent the auto update:
-From the menu find settings → VS Code Settings ->Search for update → Find “Update:Mode” and pick none
This is not a solution to our problems but a great work around to keep our previous working methods in place and will prevent auto update.
