Updates are disabled because you are running the user-scopex installation of Cursor as Administrator

after install the 0.45.11 from www.cursor.com, it will pop update notify.
it will update to 0.45.15
open cursor ,will have notice below



I think this is because vscode have different version for normal user and admin user, but cursor only use the “user installer”.


my host only have one administrator, now I can update manually next, but I think automatic updates are necessary.

0.45.15 installer will show below notice
previous installer is normal

Same issue here.

Edit: Disabling UAC seemed to do the trick. Was able to update after that.

It has nothing to do with UAC, I directly use administrator and close UAC

I meant enabling it, try setting UAC to Always notify. Restart your computer, and try to update.
