i was downloading fusion 360 but the installation won't work due the 403 error

In the start it was a ssl error so I restarted my pc. Now it is giving a 403 error

I am having the same issue today. I've tried disabling Windows Firewall, restarting PC and running Client Downloader as administrator and nothing has worked.

I had a working copy of fusion and then I started getting this error. I attempted to uninstall and reinstall and I'm still getting the same.

that thread from 2015 just says to

“Checking your PC time and try to change time sever!”

no clue what that means.

I'm back online. I didn't change anything on my end. I think it was an Autodesk issue that must have been resolved overnight? I remember something like this has happened in the past too.

I tried installing it again today from the same install file and it said the installer was outdated, and provided a link to download it again. This time it worked! I didn't change anything at all, and actually hadn't even restarted my computer. It was in sleep mode last night. So it would have had to have been something on the Autodesk end that they resolved.

I am also good now, it was definitely an installer issue. Like everyone else mentioned, re downloading the installer today lead to no issues.

@SHP3V Can you confirm that you did a fresh download of the installer and installing from that?
