I have to press ctrl + s twice to save a file

Discussion

I’ve encountered a wierd problem after last update.

It seems that now if I make a change to a file and try to immediately save (ctrl+s), it fails to save. Most of the time I now need to press ctrl + s twice to save a file. It’s almost like the IDE is trying to do something before it allows a save. If I wait a few seconds after changing a file it seems to save fine. I thnk it has something to do with git but not sure.

It’s frustrating as I’ll make a change and try to run a terminal command only to find the file didn’t save so wasted time on the terminal run.

Is it just me?

Hey, this issue might be related to Git, especially if you have automatic change checking enabled, or with code validation. Linters can also delay saving as they perform checks. There might be a conflict with an extension. Try booting in safe mode and check if it’s related to extensions by entering the command in the terminal: ⁠cursor --disable-extensions. Also, set up autosave so you don’t have to press Ctrl + S.

Thanks, it seems I didn’t need to do anything, it doesn’t seem to occur anymore after the last few updates.
