Hey, thanks for the report. This looks like an issue we’re tracking with freezes on macOS in 3.0.x. Similar thread here: [Cursor last update freeze on macOS](https://forum.cursor.com/t/cursor-last-update-freeze-on-macos/157033)

We need a bit more info to narrow down the cause:

1. What exact macOS version are you on? Apple menu \> About This Mac
2. Do you have any MCP servers set up? Check in Terminal: `cat ~/.cursor/mcp.json`
3. Try running Cursor with extensions disabled: `cursor --disable-extensions` Does that help?
4. If it happens again, please share logs from `~/Library/Application Support/Cursor/logs/` We need the latest `main.log`

If `--disable-extensions` doesn’t help, try rolling back to the previous version (download from the website). The team is aware of the issue, but there’s no ETA yet. Your report helps us prioritize.

Let me know how it goes.
