Inno_updater stopped working

Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

are you guys ever going to fix this? every single time cursor updates on windows it puts up the ‘inno_updater.exe’ stopped working box and i have to click close program. It doesn’t seem to hurt anything but it’s odd that it has been going on this long without being fixed. Just happened again going to 1.6 from 1.5 and has been happening since 0.4 or so

Steps to Reproduce

Use auto update in cursor itself (click restart to update)
it closes the program, then this box comes up with inno updater stopped working, then cursor opens again like normal

Operating System

Windows 10/11

Additional Information

using auto update from cursor itself, doesn’t do it with running update manually or using winget
