Typically after closing Fusion 360 it will not re-open

ibrandonc.ward — Thu, 03 Feb 2022 03:48:13 GMT

2020 MacBook Pro M1 Processor 8GB of ram.

If I close Fusion 360 there's no guarantee it will launch the next time. When I attempt to launch it nothing at all happens. This is new to this laptop I've used fusion for many years without this problem. Older MacBook Pro running an intel processor. It runs great on this new laptop, that is until it doesn't launch the next time. When I click on fusion nothing happens. The application will bounce up and down a few times as it does when it's opening but then never open. If I do a fresh install of fusion it will work again a few times and then once again just never open. This is a huge pain in the you-know-what and I use this for school and work all the time and I need it to work reliably. Please help if anyone knows what to do. Haven't been able to find any threads on anyone else with this issue.

@ibrandonc.ward @This sounds almost like the short cut issue. The next time you hit this can you launch Fusion from either the launchpad or through spot light? If this does launch then can we know how you create the Fusion shortcut that you are launching ?

I thought about the same thing. Unfortunately it still does not launch

@ibrandonc.ward Just to clear, can you go into Machine/Users/machine name/Applications/ and launch Fusion from here, it still does not launch?

Through what finder or the terminal? I will try both next time it stops working.

Through the finder, please. This is the place where the actual app is launched. So want to make sure that you are not hitting any short cut bugs here.
