Thanks Donna, I just did that. I did not get “not responding”. Yay!! It still won’t automatically open an embroidery design. I must click on the top left button again, then open, and go look for it fo

Ceil, SewIconz lets me preview a file before opening it. I can see what the design will look like. It’s an inexpensive program I bought online. http://sandscomputing.com/products-shop/sewiconz-embroid

I don’t know Ceil. My Win10 and my programs were ok before the 1709 update. Web-wide there are tons of complaints about it. Does anyone else have this issue with just Horizon Link? Cas

It’s worth a try. Thanks. What do you use to preview your designs? Cas I installed a trial version of SewIconz and it wreaked my ability to view designs in my Horizon Link and in MBX. It was quite a t

That works. Thanks Valora. Is there a way to set Win10 to thumbnail or preview all files and pictures? I remember trying to set it up and gave up and used SewIconz. Cas

Thanks Ceil, I right clicked start and typed in Disk Cleanup in “Search” to find it, rather than looking in File Explorer. I’m using it now. Hope it helps. Yes, I did the other fix and I no longer get

Has anyone tried this mid-weight Pellon? https://www.craftsy.com/quilting/supplies/pellon-931td-fusible-midweight-interfacing/34757

That happens to me frequently. I just try it again and eventually it finds it. Also, I don’t know the machine has to be on the white edit screen for it to be found. It has to be there to receive the f

Thanks Roberta, I saw it in an article about purses on Craftsy, and remembered this conversation. Cas Hi Cas, The Pellon product is a stabilizer for things like collars and cuffs. It is definitely not

I transfer wirelessly from my Win10 PC. I have my sewing machine settings turned to WiFi on and use the find feature just as you did within HL. Sometimes it takes a couple of tries. Cas

Hoopsisters has entire embroidered quilts. They are really dense designs though. I started one and wondered why I bought so much pretty fabric since it was covered up. I ended up cutting half the embe

I worry about them becoming obsolete too. I remember telling myself it’s ok to spend a small fortune since the machine would be all I’d ever need. I never thought about the motherboard wearing out. Ca

That’s what I meant, the stuff on the motherboard. LOL. I didn’t mean the piece of plastic the parts were connected to would wear out. Motherboards can be replaced if damaged, obviously. I wonder how

The only thing I've noticed is it seems the machine can no longer handle bulk at all. I quilt and it has a hard time going over seams. It just sews in place. I kind of have to push the fabric to get i

I quilted a fairly heavy purse before I updated. Sometimes going through 8 seams. It worked fine until I couldn't fit the purse under the body of the machine. Then I had to get my older Janome out so

Thanks Jim, I always liked the moderation. I liked when your text was red too. Is that still possible? Cas
