Hi, out of nowhere Cura 14.01 for Mac Os suddenly takes a minute to start.

I have the newest Macbook Retina 15", no other programs are giving me any trouble, except Cura, since an hour ago. So it is not my Os/laptop that is giving me a problem.

Before I've used Cura without any problems. I tried replacing the app with the downloaded backup, I tried to find out where the Cura variable are stored (I can't find them) because I think the software needs to be completely removed from my computer and reinstalled.

Where can I find all the stored support files? When I search for either Cura or Ultimaker, it doesn't give me any hints on where to find the files and I have hidden files all visible in my Finder so that is not the problem.

I would greatly appreciate the dev team to reply/explain how to troubleshoot whats going wrong. I cannot find any pointers in the system logs, and Cura itself, I can't find the log of the program so I can't find out why it's suddenly taking a minute to load while before it was almost instantly.

    That's really weird. All of Cura's settings are stored in your home directory, in a hidden folder called .cura

    You could try deleting that and then reinstalling the program. Open terminal and type:

    cd

    rm -r .cura

        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
