3D Printer settings disappear in Fusion360

Every. Single. Time. I want to 3D print something I have to set the 'Output Application'.

Every time I want to print the setting has been reset. Every time I have to browse through my program files and set it to Prusa Slicer again.

I found a support page purporting to solve this issue. But of course it does not actually fix the problem. Resetting Fusion 360 does not remedy this issue.

There is something especially infuriating about false documentation. Why is this so hard?

Hi @colin.steinmann

This may be related to an issue with preferences not saving between sessions that we are tracking.

Where are you assigning these settings? In the right click - save as mesh dialog? Or in a machine configuration in MFG? (that article is referring to the latter).

Cheers,

Karina

I am trying to set the preference @ File > 3D Print > Output > Application.

Thanks @colin.steinmann - I did a quick test and this preference is stored in the same place so I think it's definitely the same issue. The team is working on this currently as FUS-102156.
