Cursor Not Responding

I have encountered such a problem. I can’t work in this state of the Cursor. Every 30-40 seconds my window with the Cursor turns white and the message “Not responding” appears, it often freezes in one place and I have to wait a long time until everything goes back to normal. And if I click one button with a white screen, the Cursor crashes. I don’t understand what the reason is, it’s impossible to work like this. I checked everything I could, but nothing helps…

Version: 0.49.6

I downloaded 0.48.9 from here and it seems to be working fine now Downloads | Cursor - The AI Code Editor

Problem is that it wants to autoupdate on restart :))

This is how it worked for me.

Try opening another project and see if cursor still have the same problem. If everything works on another project this is the solution👇.

Go back to the project cursor is not responding and go back to the last checkpoint. Try to prompt again.

It worked for me.

I downloaded the version below but it didn’t help me ((

bro i cleared all my past chats in all projects but it didn’t help me(((

the problem is relevant, offer your solutions!!! pls

UPDATE
I solved this problem! The cursor was constantly loading my hdd, because there was a lot of cache and backups on 6 gigabytes. I cleared the folder appdata/roaming/cursor and temporary cache temp. Installed version 0.48.9. And a miracle, my cursor flies!
I WILL BE GLAD IF THIS HELPS SOMEONE!!!

In my case, I have my root directory (OS - Ubuntu 24.04 LTS) mounted on my SSD (/) and my /home mounted on my HDD. When I open anything in my /home directory, I had this error, every 5 seconds it crashed. But when I moved my project to / , the problem was fixed.
