For the past 2 days, whenever I send a message/request in Cursor IDE, it takes a very long time to process and eventually fails with the following message:
Request ID: 6f8fe816-8110-4f20-a451-43084e57ed78
This is happening consistently with my requests and is severely affecting my workflow. Please check the request ID and let me know what is causing the issue and how I can fix it.
Thank you.

I checked, and this request didn’t reach our servers. It’s getting stuck inside Cursor on your machine before it’s even sent. This is a known issue with Cursor 3.21 on Windows that we’re tracking. I’ve shared your report with the team.
For now, these usually help:
Fully quit Cursor (File → Exit, make sure there are no Cursor windows still open), then reopen it.
Start a new chat using Ctrl+L instead of continuing the stuck one.
Keep to one Agent session at a time and don’t attach lots of files to a single message.
If it gets stuck again, press Ctrl+Shift+P, run “Developer: Reload Window”, then resend.
Cloud Agents on cursor.com/agents aren’t affected, so you can use those as a fallback.
If this keeps happening, please do this while the message is still stuck: press Ctrl+Shift+P, run “Developer: Capture and Send Debugging Data”, then tell me the time (and your time zone) when it happened. This will help us see exactly where it’s getting stuck.
The issue that caused requests to get stuck on “Taking longer than expected” and not reach our servers was fixed in Cursor 3.22, which is the current version.
If you’ve already updated to the latest version, it should work for you. If requests are still getting stuck after updating, reply here and we’ll take another look.
