Using Cursor AI with WSL (Widows Subsystem Linux)

General
1

When downloading the WSL for cursor and selecting the bottom left corner to attempt to connect to it, I encounter this error message.

[2024-10-24 16:01:27.083] Extension version: 0.88.4
[2024-10-24 16:01:27.084] L10N bundle: none
[2024-10-24 16:01:27.087] WSL extension is supported only in Microsoft versions of VS Code

And nothing happens so i do not connect to my WSL environment.

Any help with getting WSL to work on my windows machine inside cursor? I have no problems with WSL in my VS Code environment.

This solved for me: Bug: Cursor is not launching through `cusrsor .` or `code .` command in WSL2 Distro ubuntu. · Issue #870 · getcursor/cursor · GitHub
