Its not saved to the cloud yet, since i'm still offline and who knows what'll happen then but in the meantime its locally saved and exported. close the app, open %appdata% folder, go up to local, then Autodesk folder, copy 'autodesk fusion 360' common, production 'web services' webdeploy and to your busted install, same folder, over write the files in there, then uninstall the bad fusion 360 and reinstall it, then run it and you should see the couple of projects you downloaded, they probably will not load, but now you should be able to save and export the crashed file and not see the, i need to connect to update file list. So for people in a real bind here's what i did to save (and export) my file, and i'm sure AD will provide a much easier solution in the meantime, but this at least let me save my file.įorce fusion360 to crash (forced exit works) with your unsaveable project loaded, so it'll recover it next time you load it.īring up a vm with windows 圆4, or a different computer with fusion360 installed and updated to same version, preferably a fresh install since it leave a lot of gubbins behind, run it, quick on a few projects.
