Hi @devnate,

In case it speeds up the troubleshooting process, you might want to copy and paste the Cursor version information from:

`Cursor` \> `Help` \> `About`

And perhaps also share:

- Windows/Mac/Linux version
- The language you are coding in
- If you are working in your own folders in a standard location  
(or the ‘demo/tutorial’ ones that come with cursor)

I have seen one user who had some problems when working with the files in the ‘demo/tutorial’ folders:

[https://forum.cursor.com/t/apply-does-not-work-for-me/6633/7](https://forum.cursor.com/t/apply-does-not-work-for-me/6633/7)

In case you haven’t seen it yet, specific usage information is available at:

[https://www.cursor.com/settings](https://www.cursor.com/settings)

when you are signed into [cursor.com](http://cursor.com).
