My saved appearances are different colors after redownloading them

I saved some appearances and added them to "My appearances":

Then I wiped my computer and reinstalled Fusion. So I have to download the appearances. Which is fine.

What's not fine is they are now different colors. See the "Default Red" appearance? The thumbnail surely makes it look red, and it's called red because it used to be red, but this is the actual color when it gets applied to a model:

And when opening it up to edit it's not red:

It actually now has an RGB value of 0,156,156. So no red. How can I make that red because I spent a lot of time setting my appearances the way I did.

Sometimes it's actually black lol:

Now if I open up a model I worked on before I wiped my computer, the appearances look correct:

Am I supposed to go through all my old files and hunt my appearances down one by one and resaved them to "My appearances"? Am I going to have to do this over and over again?

Apparently in the Data panel the red is actually both green and black:

Anyone know how to get my appearances back after Fusion changed them? The thumbnails didn't update they show the colors I specified not what Fusion gave me after redownloading them.

Don't change my appearances when I redownload them?

Is this going to happen the next time I install Fusion and have to redownload appearances?

Hey @eerier_bleach0f

I think a support ticket would have been a better route for a quick solution.
These public forum posts aren't necessarily seen by the correct teams. I'll see what I can find.
I would suggest creating a support case as well.

Thanks,

Hey @eerier_bleach0f

Team is reviewing. They aren't able to replicate with a fresh install and custom appearance import.

Are you able to share your zipped user folder? /users/ <username> /Library/Application Support/Autodesk/Common/Material Library/20231130-FY25-4.1.0/user You can send directly to me kyle. williams AT autodesk.com

Also share the imported results, add the appearances to favorites, then copy the Favorites.adsklib from the same path above.

Does Shift+N or Shift+F fix it?
