It seems like the communication settings are incorrect or the configuration folder may have moved or changed. Please try to do the following instructions below to clear the application data which is basically a hard reset for SignCut. This will reset SignCut so you will lose your cutting plotter settings and license number in the program.
If you aren't sure what settings to use and are able to start SignCut, we recommend you to click Cutter in the settings menu and write down what you have selected for manufacturer, cutter, output device, and baud.
