After updating to .46, I keep getting this message when trying to open my project:
I am able to open another project. This was the project I had open when I updated to the newest version. I am using Mac OS and this version of cursor: Version: 0.46.1
VSCode Version: 1.96.2
Commit: 69ce6c261e430e5be69213f1e721e50142477710
Date: 2025-02-22T09:53:15.548Z
Electron: 32.2.6
Chromium: 128.0.6613.186
Node.js: 20.18.1
V8: 12.8.374.38-electron.0
OS: Darwin arm64 24.3.0
This is keeping me from using cursor as I need to work on the repo it won’t open now.
Hey, try clearing the cache. Try opening the project by selecting the “Don’t restore editors” option to avoid restoring the previous state that might have caused the crash. Also, try removing your project from the recent projects list and reopening it. I hope this helps.
I had the same problem and deleted the chat history. It works now.
It is not an easy task though (at least did not find a easy way).
On MacOs, the chat histories are stored in ~/Library/Application Support/Cursor/User/workspaceStorage.
Here is a script to help you identify the folder that contains the history of your project having issues. You can run the command ./find_cursor_workspaces.py --search “my-project”
(assuming you named the file find_cursor_workspaces.py
It fixed the issue for me. Hope it helps!

cursor is getting crashed on m1 air 8gb ram. This crash has also happened before, but it cannot run a single command after today’s latest update. I tried by closing everything except the cursor, but generation is failing in between, and the app is getting crashed. Due to this, my 12 credits got eaten up unnecessarily and so my time. Kindly resolve it ASAP.
