You do not need to delete documents to allow the editing of another document. The Screencast will explain.

Understood. I set a few to Read Only and now have 4/10 documents and it will not let me save the new drawing I just completed.

I have the personal free version, and it now says Expired on the top right. Is it not free any longer?

Fusion 360 is free to use with a Personal License for one year increments. If it truly says your license is expired, you will need to renew it. I would be sure it is expired first by logging into your Autodesk Account and look at your Product and Services to see the expiration date. If it is actually expired, go to this site to renew your license. Please read carefully, the site is for Personal and Startup license renewal.

If you created a model, in Fusion 360, while it was on an expired license, then it could not be saved and will be lost. All saved models are on the cloud under the Autodesk Account ID that you log into Fusion 360 with and will be available before and after you renew your license. You might try to see if it is in your Recovery Documents.
