Wonder if anyone can offer some advice.

 

I've got Cura 5.3.0 running on an old machine that I need to replace, so I've picked up a laptop Windows 10 Pro 22H2, i5 8500T, 16GB RAM and trying to get Cura installed and running.

 

Whenever I launch Cura on the laptop, it takes me through the User Agreement and crashes when trying to add a printer as I try to scroll through the list - log file shows:

 

023-04-05 14:02:47,198 - DEBUG - [MainThread] UM.View.GL.ShaderProgram.load [61]: Loading [C:\Program Files\UltiMaker Cura 5.3.0\share\cura\resources\shaders\xray.shader]...
2023-04-05 14:02:52,991 - INFO - [MainThread] cura.CuraApplication.writeToLog [619]: User accepted the User-Agreement.

Windows is fully patched and up to date, as are the device drivers.

 

I've uninstalled, rebooted and reinstalled but the issue persists at the same point in the printer selection process.

Any suggestions how to resolve this?

 

Thanks in advance!

    Hi.  I had exactly the same problem when selecting my printer from the drop down list. Cura would install ok and let me choose the printer manufacturer (Geeetech in my case) but then when I clicked on the model (A20) the programme just crashed and shut down. In the end I got around it by selecting an earlier model from the drop down (A10) and then it started fine and has been working without any issues since. Hope that helps.

        UltiMaker Cura 5.3 stable released

        ArunC posted a topic in UltiMaker Cura,

        In this stable release, Cura 5.3 achieves yet another huge leap forward in 3D printing thanks to material interlocking! As well as introducing an expanded recommended print settings menu and lots of print quality improvements. Not to mention, a whole bunch of new printer profiles for non-UltiMaker printers!

        Cura Alpha With New Tree Support 🎄

        MariMakes posted a topic in UltiMaker Cura,

        Are you a fan of tree support, but dislike the removal process and the amount of filament it uses? Then we would like to invite you to try this special release of UltiMaker Cura. Brought to you by our special community contributor @thomasrahm
         
        We generated a special version of Cura 5.2 called 5.3.0 Alpha + Xmas. The only changes we introduced compared to UltiMaker Cura 5.2.1 are those which are needed for the new supports. So keep in mind, this is not a sneak peek for Cura 5.3 (there are some really cool new features coming up) but a spotlight release highlighting this new version of tree supports.
