Did anyone ever find a general fix? I think I just ran into this today: Auto-Logged Out on Restart, Now Chat History Won't Load After Logging Back in for Any Projects
I went digging in Cursor a bit deeper and I’m seeing the same errors generate (with my own file paths) as LorisFriedal in this window upon trying to load any past chat:
Tried troubleshooting this in Cursor itself – the Auto-agent response:
I’ve already tried 1 & 2. I just tried 3 (renaming the two cache folders mentioned there as _backup) and restarting – no dice. After opening Cursor in that directory and looking for fixes there, I can see old versions of files (probably for changelog/checkpoint storage) but none of the actual chats – so I’m not sure where that’s stored.
After digging through the various User folders to try to find backups with the Auto-Cursor-Agent (and/or figure out if my chat files are corrupted) it seems like that might not be something that’s surfaced through Cursor automatically:
Searching more here, a mod recommended a VS Code extension to try to recover chat history – so I guess that’s what I’ll try next: How to Recover Chat History from Cursor Files?
