Mcp server creates additional window in win10

I’m using Cursor on Windows 10, and I’m encountering an issue when using the MCP server. When I add a fetch MCP server and enter the following in the settings:

node C:/Users/Administrator/Documents/Cline/MCP/fetch-mcp/dist/index.js

It runs normally but opens an additional Node window. If I close this window, the MCP stops working, and refreshing doesn’t help. I have to close and reopen Cursor to make the Node window appear again.

However, when I configured this MCP server in Cline, I used the following configuration:

{
“fetch”: {
“command”: “node”,
“args”: [
“d:/ai/cursor/mcp/fetch-mcp-main/dist/index.js”
],
“autoApprove”: [
“fetch_html”,
“fetch_markdown”,
“fetch_txt”,
“fetch_json”
]
}
}

This works normally without showing any window.

Anyone knows how to deal with such bug? Thanks.

Same issue here. It’s been there since 0.45.11 i’d say, it is annoying. Any ideas or workarounds ?

same issue here, seems mcp servers doesn’t match well with Windows so far, now I use Cline extension on Cursor to make the process less annoying…

Same issue.

In cursor 0.45.15,it can work with additional window.

In cursor 0.46.7, additional window still shows, and fetch-mcp cannot work now.

In cursor 0.46.11,it can also work, still with additional window.
