hi @danperks i am not alone with this issue. Would you be able to expedite this with the team at cursor please? Paying for a product that does not allow me to run my business is not going to cut if for much longer but I really want to believe that the team is capable of fixing this issue. It is more than just an isolated case

Thank you

Link to another bug report that matches mine:

> I’ve been having this problem on Windows for three weeks now. Every time I try to update, I get the same message. At first, I thought it was my computer, but knowing that it happens to others changes things. None of the usual solutions work, including disabling the antivirus. The only thing that has worked for me is downloading the installer from the Cursor website and installing everything manually every time there is an update.
