Describe the Bug

I really enjoy the Cursor, however I’ve noticed C/C++ extensions doesn’t work on Windows.

I have no completions, no go-to, etc. The same exact version of extension works completely fine in vscode, on the same machine / environment.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. create new empty folder
  2. put sample file below
  3. install C/C++ extension pack (C/C++ Extension Pack v1.3.0, or C/C++ v1.22.11)
  4. try autocompletion or goto functionality
#include <stdio.h>

struct Student {
    int id;
};

int main() {
    Student s1;

    // try auto completion here with s1.
    s1.

    printf("Hello, World!\n");
    return 0;
}

Expected Behaviour

autocompletion and goto work, better syntax highlight

Screenshots / Screen Recordings

Cursor on he left, vscode on the right.
