I updated to 1.0 and then my cursor window started freezing and no matter what I’ve tried it’s not working:
- tried re-installing cursor
- clicked keep waiting 5x
Other projects are working, but I need to work on this codebase. How can I fix this?

What do you mean “check your computer”? The only project I’m having issues with is this particular one.
Same here. I restarted Cursor because it deleted huge blocks of code after the usual Diff timeout error. When I reopened, it said I was on version 1.0 and now nothing works.

Hey, this issue is usually related to a large chat history in your project. To solve the problem, try manually deleting most of the history, possibly the oldest chats. You can also try renaming or moving the project. This will help you quickly clear the history.
Additionally, you can delete the history by navigating to this path and sorting the folders by modification date. Choose the one that was used recently, you can delete it or save a backup just in case:
Windows: %APPDATA%\Cursor\User\workspaceStorage
macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Cursor/User/workspaceStorage
Linux: ~/.config/Cursor/User/workspaceStorage
If your history is important to you, you can try exporting it using this extension:
Got it, thank you. Seems it was the chat history, but I recall I had started a new chat conversation, given it was getting pretty long. How can I prevent this in the future?
For example, is it due to one individual chat or in general for one project? if it’s one chat, then maybe I have to start new chats for every portion of code?
I think this is the total number of chats in one project, you can delete unnecessary chats from time to time, for example, the oldest ones.
Got it. How can one determine when to do this? It wasn’t like a extensively long project I had for weeks. Cursor should probably do this btw since you have the data on it and also the ability to “archive” perhaps
