Extension lost, settings.json not applying

Hi, at least a week ago my Vim-plugin was working well (I have been using it in Cursor for over a year) but suddenly this morning I could not find it from anywhere. I was able to install it again by first downloading from VS Code Extentions. But even after installing it doesn’t seem to work: Esc nor ctrl + [ don’t take me to normal mode.

It also seems like my settings.json is not applying. I have eg.
“editor.lineNumbers”: “relative”, in my settings.json and it worked for a year but not today… Other custom settings aren’t working either.

On a third note, even when I have a file open, ctrl + tab scrolls the agent conversations instead of files as it used to…

These kinds of breaking changes are quite annoying.

Would be nice to get my editor to a usable state again. Let me know if any more details are needed!

Hey @MojoLakeee

Thanks for the report. We’ve seen a few internal reports of thsi as well. What version of Cursor are you using?

Hi @Colin . I’m using 3.4.20.

Thanks!

Could you check your VS Code settings and let me know whether the setting shown below is enabled?

We currently have an open bug where this setting gets toggled without any action from the user.

Hi, I have it like this:

But I haven’t used VS code before so I had to install the Vim plugin to even find that setting.

I’m not sure I understand.

What Vim plugin are you referring to in your original post?

I now opened Cursor with code . –classic and everything works. So apparently the weird agent mode thing (which apparently became default for me yesterday) has different settings and extensions.

My setup works now! Just kind of weird that when updating there was no guidance about the new ui vs old ui (or maybe I missed it…).
