Does this stop you from using Cursor

Yes - Cursor is unusable

Hey, I can see the screenshot. This is a known storage corruption issue with the state.vscdb file.

Here’s a fix:

  1. Close Cursor completely
  2. Go to C:\Users\mijnm\AppData\Roaming\Cursor\User\globalStorage\
  3. Delete or rename the state.vscdb file
  4. Restart Cursor

This will reset your chat history and some layout preferences, but it should clear the error and let you start fresh.

The team is aware of this issue. Recent builds include improvements to reduce how often this happens. SQLite WAL mode is now always enabled for better corruption resilience. Make sure you’re on the latest version.

A similar report with more context: Occasionally the cursor local storage might get corrupted and that leaves undeleatable chats on restart

Let me know if this helps, or if the error comes back after deleting the file.
