Original MicroSD Image

[Fasteddiechu]

I was trying to clean up printed gcode files and left the original folders alone. I must have inadvertently deleted something else because I can no longer print using the MicroSD card. The printer does not display the files to be printed. Is it possible to download the original card image so that I can see what files are missing?

Your problem isn't missing files or folder structure, as there are no such requirements. It's likely an issue with the names of the GCode files. If a filename is too long or contains non-ASCII characters, it's ignored, or in some situations all the files are ignored.

I can't be more precise than that, as I haven't managed to find precise information about what filename lengths and characters Marlin (basis of Neptune 3 firmware) supports.
Doing some testing with mine to see if I can figure out filename length limit.

Experimenting, I'm not sure there is a fixed limit?
I run into issues (specific files not displaying, all files not displaying) not when I exceed a specific length, but in general with long filenames and a lot of files.

Thank you-thank you-thank you! The names were too long. I renamed it shorter and it shows up! Appreciate your help! Eddie

Thanks again. Saves me running my PC all the time to print long projects through the USB. Eddie
