I reported extensive issues with the terminal integration on Windows 11 with WSL2 and Ubuntu a while back. Sadly, my ticket has been closed, its been 30 days. I ended up moving back to a Macbook sent to me by the company, which does not have terminal issues. However, there ARE some very SERIOUS terminal issues with Cursor on Windows with WSL.
I was in contact with a rep from Cursor about this issue for a while. I’ve been ghosted since. IMO, until Cursor fixes these issues, it is pretty much untenable on Windows with WSL. It just simply does not work. I would save your money for now. Maybe try Windfall Cascade, it seems to be pretty good, and may be not just a viable but also a faster alternative.
For now, for me, Cursor works with terminals on Mac, so I’ve stuck with it. Recent updates seem to have introduced other serious bugs, so, I may be trying Windsurf Cascade myself soon here… The Cursor team needs to stop worrying about GPT-5 and start worrying about its growing base of debilitating bugs!
