Does this stop you from using Cursor

Yes - Cursor is unusable

Hey @Deepanshu_Goyal! This is an issue we’re tracking with Cursor 3.28 on Windows, not something in your setup. Either of these should get you working again:

  1. Press Ctrl+Shift+N (or File > Open IDE) and use the Agent chat in that window.
  2. Close Cursor fully and install 3.27 from cursor.com/download.

I’m merging this into “Unexpected error” after every prompt and will post updates there.
