    @VeronicaE - if the USB you are referring to is the one on the cutter itself, then you need to take it apart and remove it and replace with another one. They are bits that can be purchased at local computer repair shops. You could take it in and get it repaired if you're not technically apt.

    You can purchase a used Cricut Expression from this FB group.

    Offer someone $50 plus shipping for one. I would not pay any more than that, they are archaic, obsolete cutters and have been abandoned by ProvoCraft.

    Yes that bit where the USB should slot into or onto the board inside the cutter. If it is not connected, it can't work.

    Check your old cutter, you might be able to salvage that USB port and put it into the one that you bought.
