I tried restarting it and also deleting the app and installing again and it opens on the same thing.

This is the “about” of my cursor:

Hi there! This is a known bug that our team is actively investigating. The extension host becomes unresponsive, which prevents agent mode from working. Reinstalling won’t help since the issue is in the application code itself, not user-specific state.

A few things to try:

  1. Check your state.vscdb file size — go to ~/Library/Application Support/Cursor/User/globalStorage/ and check the size of state.vscdb. If it’s over 1-2 GB, that can contribute to the problem. Back up the file first, then delete it and restart Cursor.

  2. Disable all extensions — launch Cursor from the terminal with cursor --disable-extensions, then re-enable extensions one at a time to see if a specific one triggers it.

  3. Restart the Extension Host — press Cmd+Shift+P > type Developer: Restart Extension Host and run it. This sometimes clears the stuck state without a full reload.

A fix is in progress. You should see improvements in an upcoming stable release.
