Bug Cura crashing on ASUS Ryzen machines at startup

[damzil1991 2]

I thought I'd come and share I hope a work around if your CURA is crashing at start up on ASUS Ryzen machines at start up of cura.

 

I decided to install Prusa slicer in hope I could get back to printing and I was hit with an error advising a DDL that gets injected by A-Volute installed in C:\ProgramData\A-Volute. 

This is the sonic pad software installed by ASUS and there drivers. What one I can't say without doing some research but I uninstalled and now Cura is working again

 

All i did was uninstall sonic pad 3 and then launch Cura without rebooting. This now seems to work!

 

Hoepfully this helps someone!

Hi Mari, Sorry but that was the first thing I tried first and that didn't work. Since I did the above i posted all seems to be fine and not had any issues.
