mesacrash 0 Report post Posted April 20, 2017 in Cura won't open. I downloaded Cura 2.5. I installed it. When I click on it, it acts like it is going to open (little blue circle spinning) but it never opens. Any help would be appreciated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HalfOgre 0 Report post Posted April 20, 2017 in Cura won't open. Same here!!! I got 2.5 installed and it did open once but the materials window looked way wonky so I shut it down and restarted it. No good!! So then I uninstalled 2.5, rebooted, and reinstalled 2.4 and now THAT won't open either!!! I did a search of my system for "Cura" and got no results, but a MANUAL search of my system showed a butt load of plugin folders in a system folder named........you guessed it: Cura 2.4 AND Cura 2.5 that were never removed during the uninstall. Even a manual delete of both those system folders before reinstalling didn't fix the problem. I have a bad feeling that the 2.5 install jacked something in the registry and, just like those folders, didn't revert after the uninstall!! Stuck in the middle of a printer mod build with only half the parts printed, and FINALLY got my bed re-leveled, and NOW I don't have a slicer!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HalfOgre 0 Report post Posted April 20, 2017 in Cura won't open. Just found this. It seemed to fix things, but I still don't trust 2.5, so I reinstalled 2.4 since that was working for me. https://ultimaker.com/en/community/software-and-firmware https://ultimaker.com/en/community/39565-beta-testing-cura-25 https://ultimaker.com/en/resources/20499-reset-cura-2-1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Minutes ago, I downloaded Reptier. It will open but I am not at alll familiar with it so I will try it in the morning. I really wanted to use Cura but I don't know what to do.

TeBz 0 Report post Posted April 20, 2017 in Cura won't open. (edited) Do you think you can send me an working 2.5 Cura.exe file? It might work if I paste it into the folder... Tried to unpack "Cura-2.5.0-win64.exe" using 7-zip, and there are no Cura.exe there. in 7-Zip file window, Cura.exe is 15265 bytes, but I don't seem to be able to extract it. If I unpack the "Cura-2.4.0-win64.exe" then I get a Cura.exe there. Edited April 20, 2017 by Guest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DaHai8 67 Report post Posted April 20, 2017 in Cura won't open. Cura-2.5.0-win64.exe is 96,803KB in size. If you download is a different size, then try downloading it again. Also try running the install as Administrator: Right click on Cura-2.5.0-win64.exe and select 'Run as Administrator' See if that helps. I just downloaded it and installed fresh with no issues.

DaHai8 67 Report post Posted April 20, 2017 in Cura won't open. You can't have two Cura 2.x installs at the same time under the same user. Not sure if that's what's causing the install error, but it will cause issues later. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Could you try to (re)install Microsofts Visual C++ 2015 ? https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=53840 Edited April 20, 2017 by Guest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
