CRICUT: Fixing the Design Space plugin problem in Chrome

UPDATE: Cricut Design Space no longer uses the NPAPI plugin, so this information no longer applies.


If you haven't used Design Space for a couple of weeks and you're a Google Chrome user then when you update Chrome you'll probably be repeatedly prompted to download the Design Space plugin.

Here's what you need to do to fix that problem.


Happy crafting!  ♥

  4. When going to that link, the "enable npapi" does not show up; there are numerous others that can be enabled/disabled, but not the npapi. Any ideas?

  7. First make sure you're not using the Windows Edge browser.

    I would suggest you give customer care a call. They should be able to help trouble shoot why you're getting so many shockwave errors.
