Describe the Bug

Windows 10 22h2.
Today I downloaded the newest version of cursor. It will not login.
Prior to having the issues above, my chat was unable to connect, so I logged out and then tried logging back in.

Firefox would open, I would sign in, and the windows APP would fail to detect.

Expected Behavior

When you click on login, it redirects you into ur default browser, and you login, then the app is supposed to detect that you are logged in.

Operating System

Windows 10/11

Does this stop you from using Cursor

Yes - Cursor is unusable

SOLUTION —————- Worked for me.

Download an older version of cursor !

I tried the newest one, I tried clearing browser cache, uninstalling with REVO and reinstalling.
Nothing would work.

The only thing that worked was downloading an older version.

Hey, thanks for the report and for finding a workaround.

To help investigate this issue in the latest version, could you share:

  • Exact version number: Help > About in Cursor (both the broken version and the older version that works)
  • Browser test: does the same issue happen in Chrome or Edge?
  • Firewall/antivirus: are you using any security software that might be blocking the authentication callback?

In the meantime, the standard steps for troubleshooting sign in issues are:

  • Temporarily disable firewall/antivirus
  • Try without VPN (if you are using one)
  • Clear the browser cache for cursor.com

Since you’ve already confirmed that downgrading helps, you can download older versions here: Download · Cursor while we look into this.

Please share the version details and I can escalate this as a possible regression in the latest release.
