### Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

### Describe the Bug

Extentions icons don’t load under the extention tab on the sidebar I have to reload the IDE to see them. (I am on Windows 11 WSL Ubuntu)

Just open Cursor Ai first time and you will see some icons don’t load

Hey, thanks for the report. This symptom looks familiar, we already have similar WSL reports, for example this thread [WSL: all extension icons break after restart (vscode-remote-resource:// blocked by CORS + ERR\_UNKNOWN\_URL\_SCHEME)](https://forum.cursor.com/t/158074). It has a detailed breakdown. In a WSL session, icon assets are served via `vscode-remote-resource://` and sometimes get blocked with `ERR_UNKNOWN_URL_SCHEME` or CORS, which breaks rendering until you reload the window.

To link your case to the existing issue, could you confirm a couple things?

1. Does it happen every time you open Cursor, or only sometimes?
2. Open DevTools via Help \> Toggle Developer Tools \> Console right after startup while the icons are still blank. Do you see errors about `vscode-remote-resource://`, CORS, or `ERR_UNKNOWN_URL_SCHEME`? A console screenshot would help.
3. If you open Cursor locally without WSL, do the icons load normally?

For now the workaround is the same one you found, run `Developer: Reload Window` via `Ctrl+Shift+P`. We’re tracking the bug, but I can’t share an ETA yet. I’ll post an update as soon as we have one.

Thanks for checking. The logs confirm the diagnosis: extension icons in WSL are loaded via `vscode-remote-resource://`, and those requests fail with `ERR_UNKNOWN_URL_SCHEME` until you reload the window. This is the same bug as in this thread [WSL: all extension icons break after restart (vscode-remote-resource:// blocked by CORS + ERR\_UNKNOWN\_URL\_SCHEME)](https://forum.cursor.com/t/158074), and it’s on our radar. There’s no ETA for a fix yet. Once I have an update, I’ll post it here.

A couple things in your logs that are worth flagging:

1. You have `A terminal backend with remote authority 'wsl+ubuntu' was already registered` and `Extension 'anysphere.remote-ssh' ... LOSES`. This looks like a conflict between Microsoft Remote-WSL or Remote-SSH if you installed them manually from the marketplace and the built-in Anysphere Remote. If you have `ms-vscode-remote.remote-wsl` or `ms-vscode-remote.remote-ssh` installed, uninstall them and restart Cursor. It should behave more cleanly.

2. Current workaround: run `Ctrl+Shift+P` and then `Developer: Reload Window` right after opening. You don’t need a full app restart.

Let me know if removing the MS extensions if they were installed also fixes the icon issue, or if you still need to reload the window every time.

Hi Dean thank you for reaching out. This is the extention that you are telling me to remove that ensures that I can run my editor in WSL which I need for its Linux capabilities. Deleting it might cause problems?

Hey, no worries. Removing `ms-vscode-remote.remote-wsl` won’t break your WSL workflow. Cursor ships with its own built-in Anysphere Remote extension, and that’s what makes WSL work. The Microsoft one duplicates the same functionality and conflicts with the built-in one. You can see that in your logs: `A terminal backend with remote authority 'wsl+ubuntu' was already registered` and `Extension 'anysphere.remote-ssh' ... LOSES`.

What to do:

- Open Extensions, find Microsoft’s `WSL` extension `ms-vscode-remote.remote-wsl`, and uninstall it.
- Do the same for Microsoft’s `Remote - SSH` if it’s installed.
- Fully restart Cursor, not just Reload Window.
- Connect to WSL as usual via `Ctrl+Shift+P > WSL: Connect to WSL` or the green indicator in the bottom-left corner. The built-in Anysphere Remote will handle it.

After that, you should stop seeing conflicts in the logs, and there’s a good chance the icon issue will be more stable too. The main `vscode-remote-resource://` bug is separate though, and we’re tracking it. Let me know how it goes.

That kind of solved my issue. The thing is when I search for Microsoft WSL I see Cursor’s default WSL extention and all the extension icons loads now

Glad the icons are finally loading.

About the search confusion, all good. Cursor ships with its own built-in WSL/Remote extension from Anysphere, and it shows up in Extensions when you search for WSL. That’s what enables WSL support, so you don’t need to install the Microsoft WSL extension. The built-in one fully covers the functionality.

The main `vscode-remote-resource://` bug, where icons don’t load even without extension conflicts, is still on our radar. No ETA yet. But in your case the root cause was the conflict with the MS extension, so things should be stable now.

If the icons start disappearing again or you see any new weird WSL issues, let me know and we’ll take a look.
