Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

I saw in the changelogs that Cursor version 2.3 was released on December 22nd, but it’s been 10 days and my IDE is still at version 2.2.44, and if I click Check for updates, it says there are no new updates. Am I missing something? Thanks for your help.

Steps to Reproduce

If I click Check for updates, it says there are no new updates, but we’re on version 2.3.

Expected Behavior

The IDE should automatically update to the latest version on startup, or at most update when I click Check for updates.

Hey, thanks for the report.

Cursor rolls out updates in stages, but it usually takes at most a few days.

Please try this:

  • Early access: try enabling early access in Cursor settings: Cursor Settings > Beta

Let me know if it helped.
