@happypopcorn @Liam_James thanks for the reports. We’re tracking the issue, but there’s no ETA yet.
@happypopcorn, “it disappears every time after closing” sounds like a stronger pattern than what others in the thread describe. A few quick questions so we can add more detail to the issue:
- Which build did this start on? What version were you on right before it started disappearing?
- Where is Cursor installed, in
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\cursor\user installer orC:\Program Files\cursor\system-wide? If you have both at the same time, it might be related to this dual install bug: Windows updater fails with dual install (system-wide + per-user) and leaks ~2GB of temp folders - Do you launch Cursor via WSL using
cursor ., or directly from Windows? - Do you have any antivirus installed besides Windows Defender? If yes, which one?
Workaround for now: turn off auto-updates. Go to File > Preferences > Settings, search for update.mode, and set it to none. You’ll need to update manually, but it should stop disappearing.
@Liam_James, if you can, please share the same details too: version, install type, WSL or not, and antivirus. It helps narrow down the cause.
