New update has broken WSL

General
1

I just updated to the newest version. But now, when I connect to WSL using Cursor, it’s trying to download some update of visual studio. However, it cannot find it (error 404)

Any idea how to fix this? (or revert to previous version ^^)

I tried Connect to WSL on a fresh install of the latest release and it worked with my Ubuntu distro.

Can you share your logs from the error?

This is the error I see. It’s about updating VSCode. So, I’m wondering if Cursor is trying to download a version that is too old or something like this:

P.S: Sorry for the screenshot. But it doesn’t let me copy-paste the text.

I managed to copy the error message. Here it is.
