    That sounds clearly like you didn't follow the install instructions.

    Check https://wiki.bambuddy.cool/getting-started/

      Look, I get it. I'm a manufacturer that also produces a product and I sell worldwide so I know what it is like dealing with millions of customers. Some of them can understand your instructions and some take forever to get it. LOL, I guess the shoes been reversed and now I'm the customer that I hate dealing with as well. I'm just not extremely versed in this deep of programming and coding to understand even though I've read it 10 times. It seems like most of the instructions are explaining how it works during the install giving you 100x more information than one is needed to actually just do the install if you do not understand the lingo.
      Running the native install with powershell, (had no idea what powershell even was or ever heard of it) it basically just took off and did it all itself only pausing a couple times for you to answer a question i had no idea how to answer so just guessed like lan access y/n, windows service y/n.
      Like I said, It all is somewhat working but a couple things and I do not know where i went wrong.

        The problem is Windows. We had multiple contributors working on it and we couldn't find a way to get one Windows install script that does work for more then 5 computers. And since I don't have any Windows knowledge at all I don't know what to do.

        Thus, we are recommending a Docker install for Windows.

          Ok, I can understand that. Is there a special procedure to completely uninstall what it put on my computer to start over with the docker install, which by the way again I have no idea what docker even is. LOL
          What country are you in? If you do not mind me asking

            Just built a first version of a native Windows installer. Can you try it?

            https://github.com/maziggy/bambuddy/releases/latest/download/bambuddy-windows-x64-setup.exe
            or

                    Ok, some good news. I installed your link but it did not work properly after opening application so I completely did uninstall of both versions and then reinstalled your link and all seems to be working better now as expected except one thing so far. I was able to add a printer and even build the virtual printer this time no problem but the slicer refuses to connect to it either from Studio or Orca.

                            How do I do that? I'm not real familiar wit github. When I search Bambuddy in github it says there are 1400 issues? That is a lot of issues! If I click create new issue at the top the depository defaults to bambulab/bambustudio?
