Markdown file preview button disappeared

Hello, does anyone have any idea why my preview button for markdown has disappeared? I tried disabling all my extensions, but it’s still not showing.

I managed to find a workaround by installing a preview extension, but it’s a bit annoying.

Is it still valid?

If yes Could you post a full separate Bug Report with more info so we can check and reproduce the issue: Create Bug Report

Also add a Request ID with privacy disabled so we can look into the details? Getting a Request ID | Cursor Docs

In the meantime, please check if the built-in support got disabled (this happens sometimes):

  1. Go to Extensions (Ctrl+Shift+X).

  2. Important: Type @builtin markdown in the search bar.

  3. Look for ‘Markdown Language Features’.

  4. Make sure it is enabled.

If that extension is disabled, the preview button will disappear.

Markdown preview is gone for me too latest update. @deanrie your solution is for agentic mode. I am talking about normal mode. cmd+shift+v works as an alternative but please fix this.

We’ll be adding it back in a minute!
