When I delete a folder in the Cursor file explorer and then press CTRL+Z, the folder is not restored. This used to work correctly, but after I clicked “Never” on the confirmation popup that appears when deleting folders, the undo behavior stopped working for folders only — even though it still works for individual files.
I’ve already tried:
- Resetting
settings.json - Manually deleting
state.vscdbandstate.vscdb.backupfrom%APPDATA%\Cursor\User\globalStorage - Uninstalling and reinstalling Cursor several times
- Restarting the system
Despite this, CTRL+Z will not bring back deleted folders, even though the folders are moved to the Recycle Bin.
In contrast, VS Code behaves correctly: deleting a folder and pressing CTRL+Z immediately restores the folder in the file explorer. Of course since I never clicked in the “Never” option in VSCode.
- OS: Windows 11 Pro (64-bit)
- Device: Laptop
Is it blocking me? Yes — it increases the risk of accidental folder deletion without an easy way to undo, unlike in VS Code.
I know theres have to be a way to fix this. Please help
