Every time I run locally, Cursor automatically opens its internal browser preview.
I don’t want this and I prefer my own browser.
I can’t find a simple setting to turn this off globally. How do I just stop Cursor from ever opening a browser pane automatically when a port starts?
the same problem for me.
I’m having the same issue and have been unable at this point to be able to turn it off. Every time I save my file, it opens up a browser internally.
"Same for me, whenever I reload my application, in this case hot reload with TypeScript, the ■■■■ browser page opens and I don’t want that. It’s really exhausting and frustrating to pay 20 dollars for this and have this type of bug
Could this bug be fixed as soon as possible? It’s become quite unbearable.
Tools & MCP > Show Localhost Links in Browser > off
good day
Same, it’s annoying.
Finally I found that it can be turn off in cursor settings.
I think it should be off by default…
Thanks it worked
When I run the frontend project and click “Local” in the terminal, I want it to open in an external browser instead of the built-in browser.
how come you dont have page open in browser and then just F5?
(i mean, @cursor ; fix behavior) – but dont you just have a page open to F5 it?
Indeed, the tag for preview closure is always active.
Yeah seems that Cursor is often very opinionated, but unfortunately their opinions are just wrong..
Like this latest release, this non-sense and hiding the prev/next change things Editor actions icon disappear
Would be nice if they at least would tell in the release notes about these changes and how to revert them…
Working on this, it seems to open too much
Why this is opt-in? I don’t work with frontend.
Thanks all, it worked like a charm!
