Steps to Reproduce
On startup, Cursor shortcut is no longer pointing to any .exe.
I am reinstalling now 1.7.37 as this version: Windows (x64) (System)
Operating System
Windows 10/11
Current Cursor Version (Menu → About Cursor → Copy)
It was recently updated but unable to check the exact version - was 1.7xx
Will try reinstalling now
Does this stop you from using Cursor
Yes - Cursor is unusable
