Cura no Disk error

[ngwpower 0]

Error "Cura.exe - No Disk   There is no disk in the drive." Been using Cura for a year, love it. This morning opened Cura 2.6.2 and got this error, can not stop it, won't open. Running MS10. Removed from drive and reinstalled from this site, still getting error.

Thank You!

Hi,

I remember this is due to a problem with removable disks in Windows. Cura 2.7 which has been released today should fix this issue.

Why would it just start doing this after being in use since the 2.6.2 came out?

Oh crap, I thought it was solved, now I see that someone encountered it with 2.7 too. Here is the bug description:

Loaded 2.7 and so far no error message. The bug report says seven days ago, if I am reading it correctly. What is confusing is the report talks about having the SD card in the C. I have gotten the error with or without the card in C. After a reboot of C each time. And I have to reboot by switching my machine off, as the restart and turn off controls are frozen!

Better submit these infos to the issue on GitHub. This way you'd help the developers fix the bug.

I had that happen a few times. Once I got it cleared I started this practice:

If I inserted a removable, Cura sees it and defaults to "Save to Removable Drive". Even when removing the drive, Cura still offers that option. So, it sees the drive going in, but not being ejected, even using the 'eject removable' to dismount the drive properly.

I just make sure from now on that I never leave it in that state and make sure to not close Cura with that option open.

it is part of my practice now and have not had to encounter that issue since.

The save to removable drive was indeed fixed, but it turns out there was another issue that caused the same error, but is unrelated.
