Since Fusion 360 saves files in the cloud, and each file is given a unique file identifier, beyond the file name. This is why you can have a file with the same name. With that said, I know that this may cause issues. I'll bring this back up to the Fusion Data team.</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>Hope this helps.</P> <P>-Dan</P> Tue, 31 Jan 2023 22:29:24 GMT https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-educators-read-only/why-does-fusion-allow-duplicate-names/m-p/11720131#M2432 dan.banach 2023-01-31T22:29:24Z
