Does this stop you from using Cursor

Yes - Cursor is unusable

Hey, this is a known issue in Cursor 3. The Editor Window doesn’t load correctly when the Agents Window is active. The team is aware, and your report helps us prioritize it.

For now, here’s a workaround:

  1. Fully close the Agents Window, not just minimize it
  2. Restart Cursor
  3. After that, the Editor Window should open normally

If that doesn’t help, try launching from the terminal:

cursor --classic

This opens Cursor in classic mode without the Agents Window.

Also, Cmd+Shift+N is the shortcut to open the Editor Window from the Agents Window. Sometimes it works when the button doesn’t respond.

Let me know if any of this helps.
