Stuck on “Review Next File” – Cannot Proceed

Support Help
1

Hi,

I’m stuck on the “Review Next File” screen and cannot proceed.

  • The button Review Next File appears.

  • When I click it, nothing happens.

  • I cannot move to the next file.

  • Restarting Cursor did not fix the issue.

  • No visible error message appears.

This blocks my workflow completely.

Is there a known fix for this issue?

Thanks.

Hey, thanks for the report. This is a known issue with the Review panel, a few users have seen it get stuck on “Review Next File”.

Try these workarounds:

  1. Check git status

    • Open a terminal and run git status
    • Files might be in an uncommitted state, and the diffs just aren’t rendering

  2. Close the chat and start a new one

    • Sometimes it helps to just start a fresh session

  3. Fully restart Cursor

    • Not just Reload Window, fully quit Cursor and open it again

If that doesn’t help, I’ll need a bit more info:

  • What Cursor version are you on? (Menu > About Cursor > Copy)
  • Can you share a screenshot of the Review panel?
  • What does git status show in the terminal?

Related threads:

Let me know what worked, or what the diagnostics show.

Stuck, ‘opus4.6’ is completely unusable

@MJ_Montes Bummer that none of the workarounds helped. To dig deeper, I need a bit more info:

  1. What does git status show in the terminal when the panel freezes?
  2. A screenshot of the Review panel at that moment
  3. Your OS?

One more thing that sometimes works is clearing workspace storage. Close Cursor, delete the folder for this project in ~/.config/Cursor/User/workspaceStorage/ (Linux) / %APPDATA%\Cursor\User\workspaceStorage\ (Windows) / ~/Library/Application Support/Cursor/User/workspaceStorage/ (macOS), then reopen the project. This resets the cached state for review diffs.

@user848 I can see from the screenshot that the agent looks stuck in thinking mode on Opus 4.6. Is this a separate issue from Review Next File? Please confirm:

  • What exactly is broken, the agent never finishes generating, or the Review Next File button doesn’t work?
  • Cursor version Help > About Cursor > Copy
  • Does this reproduce on other models?
