Yes, it happens to me too (3 times, 2 today), I was told I just had to use ctrl-N, that works too, but it starts a new conversation and then composer loses all files and I don’t know what’s going on and it becomes a mess, furthermore, you should be able to make a narrow list of files for a conversation so you don’t have to start over, it’s quite an annoying problem

Hey,

This should be fixed in our latest version!
If you aren’t seeing a prompt to update, you can download it at Downloads | Cursor - The AI Code Editor

This has started happening to me again and i have just downloaded the latest version. I have tried quitting cursor, restarting but no luck. I really don’t want to lose the context of this composer session. It sits on generating and nothing happens. I’m on a Mac.

Hey, if you start a new composer session, does that start to respond?

You can always go back to your old history, so this test shouldn’t delete anything here.
