Cura won't open

[ryanbordner 0]

When I try and open Cura, an error message pops up saying:

"Oops! An uncaught exception has occurred"

Then below it says:

"Version: 15.06.03

Qt: 5.4.1

Exception:

configparser.DuplicateSectionError: While reading from 'C:\\Users\\Ryan/AppData/Local/cura\\settings\\Ultimaker+2.cfg' [line 39]: section 'blackmagic' already exists"

I have tried uninstalling Cura, but the error has continued to persist.

Any idea how to get Cura to work?

Thanks,

Ryan

No idea.... but FYI cura 15.06 is a beta version (but somehow um is not telling you that...) For a stable version get 15.04.

My gut feeling says it'll take a while before new cura will be stable.... but it looks like it will be worth the wait.

The config parser of python does weird shit here. Deleting the preferences file should fix this.

Both 15.06 and 15.10 should be seen as beta versions.

I thought this version worked very well for me but now I have almost the same error message!

Version: 15.06.03

Platform: Windows-8-6.2.9200

Qt: 5.4.1

PyQt: 5.4.1

Exception:

Is there anything that can help, which preferences file are nallath talking about to remove?
