The bug occurs when I try to directly access a project

Describe the Bug

The bug occurs when I try to directly access a project — instead of showing the project name, it only displays “index.”

The funniest thing is that when Cursor is running, it correctly displays the project names.

Steps to Reproduce

Steps to Reproduce

Place the cursor over the Windows taskbar.

Right-click.

Expected Behavior

The project’s actual name should be displayed instead of just “index,” as this would save about 30 seconds when opening the desired project.
