Does this stop you from using Cursor

Yes - Cursor is unusable

Hey, this looks like a system clock desync issue. We see this on Windows pretty often. The server blocks requests if your computer time is far off from the server time.

Try this:

  • Open Windows Settings > Time & Language > Date & Time
  • Make sure Set time automatically is turned on
  • Click Sync now to sync your clock
  • Fully restart Cursor

If you still get the error after that, reply here and we’ll dig deeper on the server side.
