Does this stop you from using Cursor

Yes - Cursor is unusable

Temporary Solutions

Downgrade to 1.3 and disable auto-update (it works normally). Previously, I reinstalled Cursor by downloading it from the download page, but I still encountered the same issue on 1.4.2.

Hey, thanks for the report. Are you using any extensions for your coding language?

After I rollback to 1.3 this is still happen

not sure maybe my device issue,

codebase indexing also doesn’t increase

you’re right I try to uninstall many extension, now is normal
