Issue:

There is an error icon next to a toolpath, and when the icon is clicked the error message says "Error: Contour selection has X missing selections. Error: No contour selected to machine."

"Error: Contour selection has X missing selections. Error: No contour selected to machine."

Causes:

The model geometry that defined the contour in this toolpath has a broken or missing reference. The number of "missing selections" indicates how many references are missing.
It can happen when:

The contour geometry has been changed or deleted,
The body has been repatterned, remirrored, or deleted,
The body has been moved to another component.

Solution:

Right click the toolpath in the browser and go to "edit."
In the Geometry tab, click the X next to Contour Selection to cancel all current selections.
Click the contours that you want.
Click OK. The toolpath will automatically regenerate.
