+## Cursor hijacked the code command
+
+I had this happen recently, installed Cursor, no issues, but, trying
+to use the `code` command would open Cursor instead. A quick search
+found this from [Nam Vũ](https://namvu.net/)
+[Cursor stole your ‘code’ command? Here’s how to revert it](https://namvu.net/2025/01/cursor-stole-your-code-command-heres-how-to-revert-it/)

+Open this folder `%localappdata%\Programs\cursor\resources\app\bin`

+Thank you Nam!
