Is there a way for me to revert Cursor to the previous version? I just updated to cursor 0.42.3 and now cursor is inoperable.

I just don’t want to go back to VS code since I’ve invested so much time and money into Cursor at this moment…

Is there an easy way to revert / rollback to a previous version of Cursor?

_ **What is happening?** _

After update to Cursor 0.42.3 I am unable to begin a working session. When I try to type anything in any of the inputs I can only get to the second letter and Cursor Crashes / Shuts Down.

Those are a few of the logs from now but what is happening now is that I am no longer having the crash issues after doing this.

- Reverted Cursor to 0.42.0 (get from change log: [https://changelog.cursor.com](https://changelog.cursor.com))
- Restarted my Computer
- Deleted the install file from my Desktop.
- Opened Cursor to Get logs from 0.42.0
- Upgraded Cursor back to 0.42.3

Now I am no longer having crash issues.
