Hi, for 2 days I have been getting the could not open for reading error when i try to send it to printer.

I have been running Simplify3d for 2 year on my Flashforge Dreamer and this is the first time I get this error.

I have tried power cycling both pc/printer, tried .stl files from different sources (desktop/2 hard drives/usb stick) and still get the error every time.

I have prepared print, saved Gcode, and tried open gcode and sending it to printer and still getting the error.

If i save the gcode to a micro sd card and put it in printer, works fine.

I have tried small files, large files, and files ive printed many times.

I checked this and other forums and still stuck.

I need help. Anyone know why?

If using a micro sd card works, why not just use it....?
