Where does the bug appear (feature/product)? Cursor IDE Describe the Bug Can’t open chats from “Chat history”. Clicking on any chat shows briefly windows loading/waiting icon, but nothing happens. It happens in all projects. Steps to Reproduce Click on chat history clock icon, and then, click on any chat. Expected Behavior Load the chats as usual Operating System Windows 10/11 Version Information Version: 2.6.12 (user setup) VSCode Version: 1.105.1 Commit: 1917e900a0c4b0111dc7975777cfff60853059d0 Date: 2026-03-04T21:41:18.914Z Build Type: Stable Release Track: Default Electron: 39.6.0 Chromium: 142.0.7444.265 Node.js: 22.22.0 V8: 14.2.231.22-electron.0 OS: Windows_NT x64 10.0.26200 Additional Information In the top chat history bar, the last three chats I used appear, and I can load each one without any problem. But if I try to access one of these three chats from “chat history,” nothing loads. There are no “corrupted” files in globalStorage or workspaceStorage If i rename state.vscdb in workspaceStorage to recreate, then chat history disappears, no chat appears neither in “chat history” nor in the top bar of recent chats. Does this stop you from using Cursor Yes - Cursor is unusable

Something similar already reported here if you want to check it out. There is a sort of workaround: [image] [2.6.11] Clicking On Chat in Chat History Not Working Bug Reports This seem to be resolved when I clicked the double arrow icon at the top right, this then changed my layout/view and made the chat panel look a bit different. Then the chat history worked.
