Your PrusaSlicer.ini file is corrupted, it is likely caused by the system crash you mentioned. Delete the PrusaSlicer.ini file and restart the PrusaSlicer. |
where can i find that file? |
|
the path is in the screenshot you posted. |

that configuration could be recovered in the case PrusaSlicer.ini is corrupted during saving. The config is first written into a temp file marked with a MD5 checksum. Once the file is saved, it is copied to a backup file first, then moved to PrusaSlicer.ini. When loading PrusaSlicer.ini fails, the backup file will be loaded instead, however only if its MD5 checksum is valid. The following "Fixes" comments are for github triggers. We implemented a workaround, not a fix, we don't actually know how the data corruption happens and why. Most likely the "Move file" Windows API is not atomic and if PrusaSlicer crashes on another thread while moving the file, PrusaSlicer.ini will only be partially saved, with the rest of the file filled with nulls. We did not "fix" the issue, we just hope that our workaround will help in majority of cases.
