Clean reinstall didnt work either and only way the infinite window spawn pauses if i shut down forcefully by using power button. I really need cursor for work purpose but i dont know what to do
Steps to Reproduce
i dont know how you would recreate infinite windows
Expected Behavior
cursor ide opening
Operating System
Windows 10/11
Current Cursor Version (Menu → About Cursor → Copy)
Thanks for the logs! They show Cursor initializing successfully, which suggests the window spawning happens after startup completes. This points to a window management or graphics driver issue.
Please try these steps:
Disable GPU acceleration: cursor --disable-gpu
Disable hardware acceleration via flag file:
Create a file at: %AppData%\Cursor\User\argv.json
Add this content:
{
"disable-hardware-acceleration": true
}
Try launching Cursor normally.
Start without any workspace:
cursor --new-window --disable-extensions
Update GPU drivers (RTX 4050):
Get the latest NVIDIA drivers from nvidia.com.
Your laptop may have older or buggy drivers causing the spawn loop.
Get fresh logs:
After trying the above, find the newest log files in %AppData%\Cursor\logs\ (look for today’s date, not August).
Share those - they should show what’s happening during the spawn loop.
Given your RTX 4050 and that the logs show normal initialization before the spawning begins, a GPU/hardware acceleration issue is the most likely cause.
