well just downloaded and am trying it. but it continually crashes. apparently it is overloading my ram. And it should not be. running linux zorin with plenty of ram for multiple projects. i can barely slice a plate and export the code before it crashes. Hope to see this fixed.
It seems the link is dead. Not possible to directly port to Linux.

What “Fix Model” Actually Is
The Fix Model option relies on the Windows 3D Netfabb API for mesh repair OrcaSlicer — specifically windows.graphics.printing3d.h, a WinRT (Windows Runtime) header that ships with the Windows 10 SDK. The feature calls into Microsoft’s local mesh repair engine that ships as part of Windows itself. It is not a web service call — it’s a call into a Windows COM/WinRT API that lives in the OS.
The gate that controls whether it compiles is a CMake check: if the file winrt/windows.graphics.printing3d.h is not found, the build system prints “STL fixing by the Netfabb service will not be compiled” GitHub. On Linux that header simply doesn’t exist, so the entire feature block is compiled out.
For me, Windows install, checked the uninstall older version box, install. When installer finished, OrcaSlicer 2.3.2 started right up with all of my profiles, nothing seems to be missing. UI has a few changes!
Now to go find the Sovol Zero nozzle profile thread … Found it! Orca Slicer Profiles thanks for posting @jbob
Ohh and I looked at the “Quality → Set other flow ratios” options, looks promising. Might try see if I can improve that Flexible PLA Ball print I was working on. Sovol Zero and Flexible PLA print help . Carpe diem, off to print!
I saved all my presets this time…and for the 1st damn time my update worked flawlessly…I didn’t loose anything…backed up for nothing
It looks more like BS now, I like the little printer pics.
