how do you downgrade

Strongly agree as well. Cursor seems to prompt me to update like 2 times a day, and I feel like I am stuck in a cycle of updating hoping breaking changes finally get resolves, only to get a new set of breaking changes. Often the same issues come back time and time again. Please figure out some sort of human-in-the-loop QA cycle that can verify releases before they are, you know, released.
Entire product feels vibe coded with zero QA. Doesn’t exactly help sell me on using the product when quality output is this bad.
Particularly bad since the upstream vscode is rock solid by comparison.

Ubuntu 24.04. Upgraded to Cursor 2.1.39 earlier today; opening files causes it to crash. I can’t even read the full error message because it disappears with the crash, but it is something with the built-in terminal, I guess. No issues using my normal terminal outside of Cursor, haven’t tested it with VSCodium yet.

Oh, and downgrading doesn’t solve the issue.

Come ON Cursor !!

I’ve been reporting bugs for months, many are EASY FIXES, but you NEVER fix them…

PLEASE can you add some of your bugs into you work list to get fixed !!!

This please!

Windows users still can’t see menus when using browser tab.

Thanks!

Do you think it is the IDE updates? I was wondering if it is their backend. I was on Version: 2.1.49 and had to go all the way back to Version: 2.0.77 and it still crashes.

Absolutely - if you have a few to share with me on this thread I will make sure they get fixed

@andrewh This please. I have no proof, but I am sure that web_search spends much less money than browser_tool.

We are not seeing widespread issues with web search. A lot of the complaints may be about the quality of the search results? Also in the post you linked, you can mouse over the results the agent is getting - it looks like it succeeded, but maybe the quality is bad?

Hi Andrew, thanks for looking into this.

In my experience, web search performs poorly for multi-part tasks. In the screenshot below (9dca18c2-e4c0-4dcb-af81-641175d5e0ce) I wanted to compare a few different AI models, and the agent struggled.

@andrewh So you didn’t open the bug report, you just read the headline, right?
