G Code Editor - Onefinity Doesn't Recognize G Code

I’ve been using NC Viewer to edit my g code removing tool change messages between vector carving with the same tool so it will continue without pausing and requiring my prompting anything on the screen. It’s been working great until this most recent firmware update (1.1.1). The controller will read all of my original Carveco g code files just fine, but when they have been edited in NC Viewer, the controller gives this error: {“code”:400,“message”:“Unable to read file - doesn’t appear to be GCode.”}. I’ve checked the original g code file format and the edited g code file from NC Viewer and they are both “.ngc” files. Why won’t the new update recognize my edited g code file?

Did you ever find a resolution to this? I’ve been using Carbide create for the two years I’ve used 1F and for some reason, I received the same error code as your.

Just did a forum search for that error.

“Unable to read file - doesn’t appear to be GCode.”

It seems to happen most when there is a “+” or some other special character in the filename.

YEP!!! I figured out it was the + sign in the file name.
Thanks
