This is quite strange. I followed the same procedure on a clean Windows installation with a fresh install of Cursor, and it worked for me. Could you try reinstalling Cursor by following this guide?
Thank you Dean but user manual wonât cut it if it is a chronic issue that not even Cursor tech support has a solution for. I will wait on Condorâs detail reply or just go back to good olâ word press
When I click on Clone Repo button absolutely NOTHING happens because it is inactive. It is not âpressableâ.
Ok thank you for trying that. This is quite unexpected and should not happen with a regular Cursor installation.
Could you confirm on which Cursor version you are on now?
As my colleague suggested you may need to follow the manual to clear the settings and install Cursor fresh.
Sorry, I gave you a link without an anchor. Hereâs the corrected link.
I installed fresh Cursor yesterday and it is a brand new version. In GitHub Cursor shows as connected but in Cursor under Tools and Integrations it shows âConnectâ not âConnectedâ. Why is everyone asking about versions of Cursor? I just installed it last night for the n-th time. Do updates change that often ?
Hi @DinoCodes we are definitely trying to help. The questions we ask help us exclude potential causes and to ensure we are checking the right options for you.
Your issue is uncommon, therefore the solution may need more manual steps and checks. We would appreciate your cooperation as we do not have direct access to your computer and can not check it directly.

Thank you. Not sure what to do. I have seen several complaints with the same issue. Some users even decided to ignore the button inactivity for good and some abandoned Cursor. I wanna give it another chance.
To completely uninstall Cursor and remove all settings, follow these steps:
1. Clear app data first:
- Windows: Run in Command Prompt:
rd /s /q %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Programs\cursor*
rd /s /q %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Cursor*
rd /s /q %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Cursor*
rd /s /q %USERPROFILE%\cursor*
2. Uninstall Cursor:
- Windows: Search âAdd or Remove Programsâ, find âCursorâ, click âUninstallâ
This removes all extensions, themes, snippets, and installation-related data completely. It ensures that no settings remain that could cause issues.
Next steps is then a clean installation of Cursor.
Ok, Let me try.

Thank you. Appreciate it.
Do I need to run line by line ???
You can copy paste it into your command line as a whole block.
It doesnât work. Syntax errors of all sorts.
It would be great if you could provide the errors. We can not see them.
By the way, the PC I am using is brand, brand new. Cursor is a new install. But⌠I will go ahead and try this too.
Could you run following in command line on your Windows, outside Cursor?
This would show the Git version.
git --version
Here the path would show if git is properly installed and set in path.
which git
In case both do not return a full result (version and path) you may need to install Git
