I am running Cura all for a very long time and update once it is available . Since using 5.2.1 encounter this problem when doing preview even with one file or project being loaded, it will take a long time to move from layer to layer. Running 4.13 does not have this problem.
My system is AMD Ryzen 7 5700U with Radeon Graphics window 11 Home version . It happen even without other program running in the background.

I have revert back to 4.13.0 and it work fine no problem

Using Cura 5.2.1 have issue when after slicing on the Preview tab unable to move the slide on the right side to preview each layer.
It hangs and show the hour glass.
Printer selected is CR10-S, PLA material. Standard layer quality

Yikes, I guess one of the wires had worked loose and was shorting.
I had my wires come unsoldered from the buildplate itself. Difficult to solder because of so much metal, but it's been working for a couple of years since the repair.
Yea it is because the connector is the spring loaded type and not screw on - before this happen was getting some very bad print with lifting from the built plate.

Found the problem - Burnt Built plate connector. Removed the burnt connector and soldered direct and it work.

Have been running my UM2 for since 2014 with the usual maintenance and not having major problem.
Today suddenly there was a bad burnt smell and my print was in a mess of tangle wire.
Going through the maintenance menu found Built plate heater not working.
Have to check tomorrow to see what is wrong.
Anyone face this problem before?

I have reverted back to the original nozzle .
Print temperature is still have to set at 235 to 238 deg C.
Infill speed have to be slow down.
Suspect it is the filament problem. Getting back to 3dxTech.
Thanks everyone for the info.

There are no stainless nozzles in that kit.
I would suspect that you damaged your temp sensor when replacing the block?
Yea my bad , it is on the other one.
Anyway both my heater and temp sensor are new.
-
When was the last time you changed you PTFE coupler?
Or are you using TFM or TFT coupler?
The PTFE coupler is a new one.
I suspect it could be the new filament I purchase from 3DXTEXT.
Have been using this filament for almost 1 year without problem.
-
It may not be stainless steel after all.
I have changed to the 35W heater. same problem have to print at 235 to 238 for PLA
Have not upgraded the feeder though. It keep skipping during print.
-
Yes using the Matchless V3 , but did not change the 25W heater.
Should have try the 35W heater.
Currently can print but need 230 deg for PLA vs 220. and also slower print speed.
Tried both the 0.4 and 0.6mm nozzle - 0.6 mm perform better.
Will change the heater later

I have bought the 3d Solex olssen block upgrade for my Ultimaker 2. It comes with 0.4 stainless steel nozzle.
Have problem with printing PLA at 220 deg C. Temperature have to set at 235 for filament to flow.
Also infill was not printing correctly. Previous original ULtimaker 2 nozzle and filament was ok.
Anyone have any idea that the heater must be upgraded to a higher power?

Have loaded 2.1.3 on window 10 - 64 bit laptop and it works fine.
Installed 2.3 beta to try but it hang at Preparing to slice.
Was using Cura 15.04.6 on same laptop before.
Printer is Ultimaker 2
-
Bought a few whitel PLA and colour PLA.
The white PLA printed fine, but next morning the Filament will be broken at the place between the filament spool and the feeder.
Happen the same with all the white filament. Color Filament from earlier batch don't have the problem so it is not the machine.
The broken part will be very brittle, tried to bend any other area of the filament does not break.

Cura 5.2.1 Preview slider not working
in UltiMaker Cura
Posted
Thanks MariMakes
I have found the problem - my recent Window 11 updates is the issue nothing to do with Cura - apparently Window 11 update of its files get corrupted so I repair the updates and it work. The update also cause alot of problem in my other software like meshmixer and sketchup.
