Cursor fails to inherit environment variables from VS Developer Prompt

[insysion]

Cursor seems to not inherit environment variables in the same way as VS Code. When developing in Microsoft C++, the recommended way to ensure that the environment variables are set is to launch VS Code from a Developer Command Prompt for Visual Studio. This works for VS Code but does not work for Cursor.

(See Configure VS Code for Microsoft C++ if the following steps are not sufficiently detailed)

• Install the C/C++ extension for VS Code
• Install the Microsoft Visual C++ (MSVC) compiler toolset

1. Run Cursor from a Developer Command Prompt for Visual Studio
2. Create a .cpp file:

#ifndef WIN32
#error "WIN32 must be defined for this code to compile"
#endif

Note the intellisense error. It does not occur in VS Code.

Windows, 0.47.8
