CURA 4.7 will not Launch (NOT RESPONDING)

[twidget 0]

I have installed Cura 4.7 and for the first few days it was fine, it ran and everything was good.

 

A few days ago, when I launched it, it just opens to the white screen and sits there.  Then displays in the title bar... Not Responding.

I have updated my video drivers as that is the last entry in the log...  4.6 worked great.

Do you have multiple displays?

I do... and I have had them on all other versions of Cura, is there something different now?

Open %APPDATA%\cura\4.7\cura.cfg in a texteditor (eg notepad).

In the [general] section, remove the lines starting with window_left and window_right

Save the file and try starting Cura again.

 

If that worked, go into the General preferences and uncheck the option to "Restore window position on start".

Thank you ! That worked and solved the problem for me :)

Many thanks to Ahoeben!!

 

It also works for Prusa Slicer!

 

%APPDATA%\PrusaSlicer\PrusaSlicer.ini

 

Delete the line start like this:     window ~~~~ : 0000; 0000; 0000; 0000; 0000

It is somehow comforting to know that PrusaSlicer is also not without its issues.
