How do I make CP (6.2) remember my imported filaments?

Software Creality Print V5 and Beyond
1

As per the title…why does Creality Print (6.2, but 6.1 did it too) forget the filament profiles I import? I can import them just fine, and it’ll be able to use them for as long as the session is alive, every time Creality Print (re)starts I need to reimport my filaments (they’re in %Appdata%\Creality\Creality Print\6.0\user\default\filament just fine but for some reason are not loaded automagically).

Also note that CP is on 6.2 now but the profile directory is still 6.0 (and also the installation is in %ProgramFiles%\Creality\Creality Print 6.1). All in all very inconsistent, but I guess building installers is not Creality’s area of expertise. Or any software, for that matter.

I believe the issue is that it is tied to your Creality cloud account. Try logging out and back in. I also notice this issue when I can’t find the CFS, I will usually do this and it fixes it.

hello，polarwolf！Has your problem been solved so far? Only text description, we can not clearly know your specific phenomenon, can you send me a specific video to show, my Email:zhanglu@creality.com, also I need your preset data!

Hello, I am a member of the Creality Print team. Which configuration file did you import? Can you send us the configuration file? We need to verify it.

I don’t (and will never) use “Creality Cloud”.

You should look into updating to the latest version of CP. they are tied to your Creality cloud account. If you are using Creality Print your stuff is tied to it. I personally like to use orca which doesn’t require them tied to an account

May I ask where did you get your file? The files I exported from the software are either filament files or json files. Your file is different from mine.
