Orca 2.2 - All custom printer and filament configs gone

[drkline]

Discussed in #8235

^{Originally posted by drkline January 29, 2025}
I just opened up Orca and all of my custom filament and printer configs are gone. So I also lost all of my custom start and stop gcode configs also. Is there any way to recover these? I'm really p****d at the thought that I may need to recreate all of this. Thoughts? Help?

Thanks

Could you please check if next launch will put their back. It might be the same issue as #8094

You also could check latest dev build (for example that one https://github.com/SoftFever/OrcaSlicer/actions/runs/13017577998) to see if it helps.

Closing and reopening did not work. I had tried this last night as well multiple times along with rebooting my PC. I also just tried to run the .EXE as an Admin and that also did not work. I am already running the latest build 2.2.0. If I click on "Check for Update" it tells me that I have the latest version installed.

Check your config folder:

OrcaSlicer/user is where all your profiles are stored. Hopefully they are still there. If they are, then there was probably a problem with loading them, check OrcaSlicer/log, it might tell you what went wrong

This is what I'm seeing. There is a current config file and a backup. It looks like there is some sort of config file from 1/24/2025 but it seems to be a corrupted file. Here is the contents of that file.

"allow_ip_resolve": true,

no, check the user folder, thats where all of your profiles are stored. OrcaSlicer.conf only stores the app settings info
