Does this stop you from using Cursor

Yes - Cursor is unusable

This error looks identical to mine. I’m on Mac, apart from that my setup is pretty similar.

[Mirshod_W]

sh1t, how can u calm down when ur whole work depends on this app u payed for but it is not working

[The_Zodo (Malaizyo G Muzumala)]

Are you able to downgrade versions? That should allow you to continue working. I’ve downgraded to 2.4 and have been able to progress. You can give that a try here Cursor · Download

[goiltpatpat (ZeonLight)]

It’s the same problem for me. Exactly the same.

[Imran_Raza]

Same issue here …. but i can wait if its going to fix in a hour…

[keejkrej]

Same issue. Interestingly, no error as long as no workspace folder is loaded. Also cli still works.

2.5.16 is rolling out to affected users (those on 2.5.15) and should fix the issue. Sorry again for the disruption!
