How to use Live Share in cursor

Guides

Hey I struggled to make live share in cursor and it seems like I’m not the only one: Live Share Extension Disapeared in V2

tldr: the old solution of downgrading it still works you just need to download it with the link directly because the UI doesn’t allow you to download the old version anymore:

wget https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/_apis/public/gallery/publishers/MS-vsliveshare/vsextensions/vsliveshare/1.0.5936/vspackage
cursor --install-extension MS-vsliveshare.vsliveshare-1.0.5936.vsix --force

“--force” is only required if you installed the new version from the marketplace and want to force downgrade.

Legendary post - just what I needed. I downloaded with this command to make sure I got the vsix:

Invoke-WebRequest "https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/_apis/public/gallery/publishers/MS-vsliveshare/vsextensions/vsliveshare/1.0.5936/vspackage" `
  -OutFile "MS-vsliveshare.vsliveshare-1.0.5936.vsix"
