Hello, for a long time I had a creality ender 3, and recently I bought an ender 3 v3 ke. Things started normally, I achieved to 3d prints things, but one day, after my pc crashed I 3d print something from my laptop. Since then, I can't seems to 3d print normals object anymore. Even with my pc. Every 3d prints seems to "drift" away, like after 2 sec the printer print behind the object, and I can hear some strange noise. Like "forced" noises. What can I do ? (I dont know anything about 3d printer)

It sounds like your printer may be experiencing issues with layer shifting or misalignment. Here are some steps you can try to troubleshoot the problem:

Check the belts: Make sure the belts on your printer are tight and properly tensioned. Loose belts can cause the print head to move out of sync with the intended path.
Check the stepper motor drivers: Ensure that the stepper motor drivers are correctly set and not overheating. Adjusting the VREF voltage on the drivers may help improve the motor movements.
Check the mechanical components: Make sure all the moving parts, such as the gantry and the print bed, are properly lubricated and free from obstructions.
Check the print settings: Ensure that the print settings in your slicer software are correct for your specific printer model and filament type.
Calibrate the printer: Perform a calibration of your printer, including bed leveling and nozzle height adjustment, to ensure accurate printing.

Your prints are overextruded a lot and the nozzle catches on the extra material
