Completely wasting tokens

Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

Cant use any powershell commands, returns instantly with 0,
so…powershell doesnt work.
CLI doesnt work,
ALL DIAGS LOOK FINE.

I am a 200$ Ultra member and it started doing this ALMOST INSTANTLY after i upgraded…you are robbing me and im close to denying the charge. I am 400+ $ in on extra use cost because of this as well…I JUST SHOWED 3 other people how to use cursor and are now paying members, this reflects on me as much as it does you.

Disappointing.

I can turn terminal commands on my own no problem,

i have uninstalled and reinstalled 3 times, 2 times restarting pc.

It also seems to just not know what its looking at via those errors, nothing is changing. completely unusable.

Steps to Reproduce

Just use cursor.

Does this stop you from using Cursor

Yes - Cursor is unusable

Hey, thanks for the report. This matches a known terminal issue on Windows. Please try in order:

  1. Settings Ctrl+Shift+J → Agents → Inline Editing & Terminal → enable Legacy Terminal Tool, then Ctrl+Shift+P → Terminal: Kill All Terminals → fully restart Cursor
    Details: Agent Terminal not working

  2. If there’s still no output, delete the corrupted workspaceStorage state and restart Cursor
    Guide and warnings: [SOLVED] Terminal Output Not Showing in Agent Mode - Delete workspaceStorage Folder (v2.1.39, Windows 11)

  3. As an alternative, set Git Bash as the default terminal on Windows

  4. Temporarily disable the PowerShell extension and check again.

The team is working on a fix and it should land in the next update.
