I had exactly the same issue with my Ender 3 Pro. Printing from the out-of-box Creality Slicer I had no adhesion issues. With Cura, using the default profiles, as soon as the first layer had any curves in it, it would pull the filament off the bed. After reading this thread and applying the collective wisdom, I seem to have fixed it by a combination of: Using parchment paper instead of printer paper for bed levelling. Reducing first layer speed to 15. Increasing first layer flow rate to 110%. Increasing first layer height from .12 to .16 (in the Super Quality profile). The only significant difference I could see between the Creality and Cura settings was the first layer height, which was 0.3 in Creality and .12 in Cura. So maybe the bump from .12 to .16 was the key, idk. First layer speed was 20 on both, but I dropped it to 15 anyway. I probably should have tried these changes one by one, but I was so frustrated I threw them all on at once. I'll probably revisit this soon when I have to recalibrate everything for the SKR Mini e3 v2 arriving next week (the printer shares office space with my wife, who would very much appreciate quieter operation) and update my post if I find a single magic bullet. Thank you to everyone who contributed suggestions on this thread. -- hugh
