Unable to install Remote - SSH extension

I am not able to install the Remote - SSH extension in Cursor 0.41.2

I don’t see it when I search in extensions and when I get one of the versions from Remote - SSH - Visual Studio Marketplace then it tells me “Error: Unable to install extension ‘ms-vscode-remote.remote-ssh’ as it is not compatible with VS Code ‘1.91.1’.” when I try to install it in Cursor

What am I doing wrong?
Anyone else having this issue?

But I even don’t see it in Cursor:

Hi @ndengler

Hmm, that’s weird, I’ve just set everything up.

Yes, strange, but now I’ve finally managed to install Remote - SSH manually. I had it install on VScode and could download and reuse previous versions of it.

Note that ms-vscode-remote.remote-ssh-0.114 did not work
But ms-vscode-remote.remote-ssh-0.112 works, finally :slight_smile:

@deanrie, I’m new to VS Code/Cursor, are you accessing the Marketplace from VS Code? I want to be able to run Cursor remotely on an Umbuntu machine on AWS, do I install the VS Code remote-ssh extension to do so? I’m able to connect to the remote machine via ssh in the Cursor terminal, but not sure of next steps. I appreciate any assistance!

i cannot find the Remote - SSH in cursor though i can manually install it in my VS Code. would you kindly share the VSCode version and your cursor version? i wonder if that is the reason for this error.

Hey, my Cursor version is 0.44.11 and my VS Code version is 1.93.1. What if you try to open this link? Will it open in Cursor?
