After upgrading, the many, many folders and cutting files on the sd card seem to be gone. Were they erased, hidden, relocated?

What is meant by “Probing Optimization?” I had issues this weekend with setting my XYZ point. I connect the probe and base and start the program to set the XYZ points. It checks Z correctly, then goes the right side and checks X. However, when it goes to the back and comes forward to set Y, it keeps pushing the block forward. I hold it with my hand, but it keeps pushing until it has an emergeny stop.

Do you think the “optimization” fixed this issue?

Thanks!

Welcome back web cam. The latest 1.6.2 restored my web cam which was missing after the previous update.

@OnefinityCNC - I just updated and now I can’t find any of my files that are loaded on the machine? Clicking the download file does download the one I ran last and I can run that file, but I can’t see it or any of my other files on the main control screen.

Is there any alpha or beta firmware more recent than 1.6.2 to try?
