Does this stop you from using Cursor?

  • Yes - Cursor is unusable
  • Sometimes - I can sometimes use Cursor
  • No - Cursor works, but with this issue

The more details you provide, the easier it is for us to reproduce and fix the issue. Thanks!

Hey, thanks for the report. To figure it out, I’ll need a bit more info:

  1. Cursor version: can you share it? (Help → About Cursor → Copy)
  2. OS: Windows or Linux?
  3. Which language/debug extension: for example Python, Node.js, Java, etc.?
  4. Screenshot: show the Debug panel where you’re trying to copy the value

This will help us reproduce the issue. It sounds like a core VS Code feature isn’t working in Cursor.
