Cura stuck trying to Sync UM ABS profile

[Link 34]

Seems something has happened with UM publishig their material profile update for ABS, it just keeps saying there is an update, you sync, quit Cura and it does the same again, syncing or updating the ABS profile won't clear !!

I am also having this same problem and can confirm.

Ditto on both 4.5 and 4.6.1 Just as an aside - seeing as I have no need to ever print with Ultimaker ABS it would be quite useful to get rid of this entry as well as quite a few other material profiles that aren't used? Any way of doing that?

Nope, that's the problem, you can't remove UM material profiles. I don't use ABS either!

Daft huh? Just adds unnecessary "bloat" on start up imho. I wonder whether Burtoogle might consider adding those profiles to his very useful start-optimiser?

That's not my work, try @ahoeben.

Maybe because of it's weekend? 😉

With the Startup Optimiser plugin from the marketplace, "Extensions -> Startup Optimiser -> Load only 'generic' and custom materials" should make Cura forget about all Ultimaker materials, except those that are currently selected for a printer on the next start. That is something to try easily and safely (the "Restore all configuration files" if it doesn't work is very foolproof).

Well, it is the weekend, and it was well into the weekend when this post was opened (note: I'm not team UM, I just don't have a life)

Signing out from your Ultimaker account in Cura until this is fixed is also a likely workaround.

@ahoeben indeed, yes, signing out and also turning off check for updates at startup removes the annoying check. i will check out your plugin, sounds interesting, forgive me for the basic question, but what is it designed to go ?

Indeed, but golden rule of software development is never do a release on a Friday if you don't plan on working for 2 days ! 😉🤪

There's an open issue about this here: https://github.com/Ultimaker/Cura/issues/7764

A fix has been made here: https://github.com/Ultimaker/Cura/pull/7707

Sorry @maht, but your answer is for people who know what to do with this information - for people like me, it is only nerd things...

 

@ahoeben - your plugin is awesome, but it does not fix (temporary) this issue...

It seems to be solved.

Actually, no update prompt anymore, installed Ultimaker ABS shows version 1.2.2

Same here, no longer annoying... Thanks for solving it!!!

I unpublished the ABS profile yesterday, so the notification will go away now...

This bug will be fixed in the next release.
