Does this stop you from using Cursor

Yes - Cursor is unusable

You could try downloading a previous version then updating.

Thank you for your reply. I entered the historical version download address you provided and tried installing multiple versions, but still couldn’t solve the problem

Cursor only added the welcome page feature from version 1.2.0, but when I install version 1.2.0, I still get an error message. Versions below 1.2.0 do not have the welcome feature

Hey, thanks for the report. We’ll investigate this.
