Users of AI-powered tools and code editors, such as Cursor, may encounter error messages when attempting to install extensions like C/C++ and Remote SSH. These prompts indicate that these extensions are exclusively designed to function alongside Microsoft products and services, specifically Microsoft Visual Studio Code. As a result, these extensions fail to operate correctly in non-official Microsoft editors. To circumvent this issue temporarily, users can uninstall the current extensions, install specific older versions (for example, version 1.23.6), and disable automatic updates.
