Hi, as the title says, I have an issue where I transfered both /home/user/.cursor and /home/user/.config/Cursor to another device and everything got transfered correctly (my login, settings, keybinds, recently opened projects etc.), but for some reason 2 things did not transfer correctly. Those are opened file tabs, even though the ide_state.json file contains them, the filepaths are the same, everything is the same… And then the chat history is also missing. I see only 2 chats labeled “New chat” both supposedly created the moment I opened the editor.
Both devices use the same system, have a user with the same username, basically all other apps and their data got transfered correctly (backup restore of home folder via rsync), just these 2 issues with Cursor persist. I tried reinstalling multiple times, partially rewriting default data, updating both the new and old device at the same time and then trying the file transfer in case there was a version mismatch or something, I tried everything I could think of, but nothing helped.
I really really need the chat history since I have unifnished work there and afaik there is no way to transfer it except moving the files themselves. I know you can export chats in markdown, so I could technically then link those exported chats and start new ones based on the original ones, but that doesnt seem like a good solution.
Did I miss something? Are the chats tied to some device ID or something? Is it because Im still logged in into my account on the old device? Please help
