It seems in 0.46.8, the issue has gone away. It’s okay to delete this report.

In 0.49.2 same issue has occured. This isssue seems comes from VSCode itself…
VSCode has exact same issue, so Cursor can’t do anything. Or probably contribute source code for it.

The issuse is also reported here too

To avoid this problem, you need to remove some keybinding related to Ctrl+A and Ctrl + V, and leave only select all and copy.
The problem will gone away.

Ctrl+A and Ctrl+C, not Ctrl+V.
Ctrl+V is not matter.
