Cura stuck in a loop of not responding

[Gatekey56 0]

The day before yesterday my Cura worked fine, no issue now for some reason it just won't boot up fully. Note it is not crashing, or anything it simply gets stuck in a loop of "Not responding"  I have tried restarting my computer, uninstalling and reinstalling Cura, and different versions, no matter what i try it simply won't boot to full. any ideas what is causing this or how to fix it?  I know its not my hardware  ( I7 11th gen, 3070ti, 64gb ram)   so I am at a loss.

There's nothing in the log about crashing, which makes things a lot harder to diagnose.

 

Have you tried resetting the configuration? That persists through uninstalls. Go to %APPDATA% and there should be a folder called cura. Just rename it (in case this works so we can recover what we can) to cura_backup (or anything really) and next time Cura starts it'll create its configuration folder like new, and if that loads we can start copying stuff from the backup to the main folder so you lose as few settings as possible.

This did it, could you by chance walk me through how i transfer back my custom print profiles?

They're in the quality_changes folder inside Cura's configuration folder. Just copy the files from that folder in the backup to the new configuration folder.

I tried to find the "cura" folder in %APPDATA%. But it is not there. My case is the same, I uninstalled 2 times to clear all the unnecessary files. Then I installed it again, even if I tried installing it to a different folder but the problem still exists. It is stuck in a non-responding loop.

In that case it would be nice to get what information we can, mainly:

1. Operating system and version
2. CPU
3. RAM
4. Graphics card and driver version

If those all check out then we'll have to put our thinking caps on 🤔

-Same here, also tried uninstalling, and other versions, only thing that helped was runing it as aministrator wich i shouldn`t need to. And i can`t find the cura folder in the APPDATA folder as well.😕

-Also, when i load a model, it gets stuck slicing, untill i refresh any setting by errasing and writting the same value again.

 

my specs are:

CPU: Ryzen 5900

Grapics card: nvidia 3080

Graphics driver: version 560.81

Ram: 32gb of ddr4 3200

 

plz help 😬

Does the configuration folder come up if in Cura you go to Help > Show Configuration Folder? (And if it does... where is it because I'm sort of curious where it'd show up 🤔)

 Unfortunately that's a known bug and there's not much you can do about it (other than the workaround you said). Happens to me all the time 😞 so at least you're not alone 🤜🤛

IF you Do NOT FIND the folder; This is the SOLUTION! Cura folder is found here;  in Appdata\Roaming\    and in \Appdata\Local\. The cura folder 'Appdata\Roaming\cura\' is most likely the culprit, rename it!
