Since today I am not able to work with cursor. While coding, at some point, comands like CMD+ S, delete, or arrows stop working.
As I press cmd +s for instance, I see the “file” top menu flashing as if save is being triggere dbut file doesn’t save! if I trigger save manually under file menu it then works.
if, I press tab instead, to make spaces in my line, starts tabbing around the IDE elements.
I can temporarely fix it by reload the window the keyboard command start to work again for then break again short after. Is unusable..
Steps to Reproduce
Just happens randomly, not sure what triggers the bug
Hey, thanks for the report. This is a weird issue. The File menu “flashing” and tabs switching in navigation mode suggests the editor is losing focus, or keyboard events aren’t being handled correctly.
I’ll need a bit more info to figure it out:
Extensions: Cmd + Shift + P > “Developer: Open Extension Monitor” and share a screenshot of the active extensions. Or try launching Cursor from Terminal with cursor --disable-extensions. Does the bug still happen?
Browser tab: Does this happen when the built-in Browser tab is open? There are a few known focus issues when the Browser tab is active.
Console logs: When the bug happens, open Cmd + Shift + P > “Developer: Toggle JavaScript Console” and check if any errors appear right when the shortcuts stop working.
Repro steps: Do you notice any pattern, like it happens after using chat or agent, after switching files, etc?
