How do i change from vsc to jetbrains?

Hi all.
When I first installed Cursor I choosed the VSC option. Now I want to use cursor with JetBrains, but when I uninstall cursor and reinstall it, it skips all the installation preferences and the installation goes straight to install cursor with VSC and all the previous preferences from the first installation. Is there a way to change this from cursor itself? Or do I have to find somewhere the installation file that prevent the installation to restart from scratch?

Cursor is only available in its VSC form.

That’s unfortunate.

I started the switch to cursor/vscode from webstorm just to use the AI functionality. After a week I switched back to webstorm+copilot. I just can’t get used to the vscode ui and missing features.

There’s so many little details in webstorm/jetbrains IDEs that assist with every day coding that just don’t exist in vscode/cursor. And hunting for the right plugin to get similar results takes a while and I end up dissatisfied.

I’ve canceled for now. Please consider adding support to jetbrains.

Same here, I really like the AI features, but vs code is just not up to par with intellij, any plans on supporting intellij? Would be an instant purchase for my whole company.

The Cursor devs can hardly just go fork intellij. Which–for some–is kind of the point
