Troubleshooting

​
”Open Cursor” button does nothing

If clicking the button doesn’t open Cursor, the cursor:// URI handler is not registered on your system or cursor is not properly installed. To troubleshoot:
  • Linux: Verify a Cursor desktop entry exists in ~/.local/share/applications or /usr/share/applications. If missing, reinstall Cursor.
  • All platforms: Try refreshing the browser page, or test in a different browser to rule out browser-specific issues.
