Hi guys, thank you for the response. Yes I am printing using the USB connection. I dont currently have an SD card reader but I will get one. I tried renaming the .txt file to a .gcode file and it does change the file name but it does not change the file type and hence cura still won't open it. But it sounds like this problem will be solved if I just get an SD card reader and print directly to the printer.

Hello, sometimes my print just stops 1/2 or 3/4 of the way through a print. This does not happen frequently but when it does it is frustrating. I realize the best thing to do would be to prevent the print from stopping midprint but sometimes it just happens. I can open the gcode in notepad ++ and edit it with the intent to start printing where i left off. But how do I get the edited gcode back into Cura? Cura will open a .gcode file but not a .txt file. Are they not essentially the same thing? Do I have to convert the .txt into a .gcode somehow? My printer is a monoprice mini. Thanks for any suggestions.
