How I Fixed Unity Debugging Issues After Switching to Anysphere C# in Cursor
June 19, 2025Why My Claude Sonnet Usage Skyrocketed in Cursor IDE and How I Fixed the Reporting Issue
June 19, 2025
I was really excited to upgrade my Cursor IDE to version 1.1.4. But just minutes after installing it, I ran into a frustrating snag: every time I tried to generate code or ask for help, it would freeze on “generating…” with nothing happening. It completely stalled my AI development projects.
After a bit of tinkering, though, I found a couple of quick fixes that got me back to work in no time.
The Frustrating Problem I Encountered
Right after updating, I noticed something weird: every prompt I entered got stuck in an endless “generating” loop. No text appeared. No code changed. Just that spinning indicator that never went away.
It happened every single time, no matter what model I used or which project I was in. My smooth coding sessions turned into a total time-suck.
My Step-by-Step Journey to a Fix
I jumped into troubleshooting mode immediately. Here’s what I tried and what actually worked:
- Restarted Cursor: Like most of us, I tried turning it off and on again. Unfortunately, the problem came right back.
- Started a new chat: This was the fix that worked for me! By opening a fresh chat in the same project, code generation started working perfectly.
- Opened a new project: If the new chat didn’t help, switching to a different project (or creating a new one) bypassed the bug entirely.
- Rolled back to 1.1.3: As a last resort, I reinstalled the previous version (1.1.3). That completely fixed the issue. You can grab older installers from the official Cursor download page.
Key Insights for Staying Productive
What I learned: this bug is specific to version 1.1.4. It’s not your system’s fault—I was on Windows, and others saw it on Linux too.
The Cursor team is on it, so check their status page for updates. Until then, these steps have kept me coding without the headache. If you’re stuck in the same loop, give them a shot!
