i can’t create project rules, I don’t even have a project rules section and when i try to create one, it shows failed to save
are you trying to create them through the settings UI or by making the file directly?
if the settings UI is giving you “failed to save,” try creating the file manually instead. make a .cursor/rules folder in your project root, then add a .mdc file in there (like my-rules.mdc). the format looks like this:
---
description: your rule description
globs:
alwaysApply: true
---
your rule content here
that bypasses whatever’s going wrong with the save dialog. you can also check if you have write permissions on the project folder, sometimes that’s the issue.
what version of cursor are you on? and is this a local project or something on a network drive?
I am trying to create them in the setting UI
I will try this and see if it works
