Can not access post process NC code from local storage

arainerGP9ZZ — Wed, 17 Feb 2021 14:41:30 GMT

When I create post process NC code, it is saved in a windows based cloud storage that is not connected to my computer. I am trying to access the code on my local drive but I am not able to find it in a local cache. I am unsure whether or not I am missing something or I need to configure settings still. I also can not change the output location to be my computer rather than the cloud.

We you see the Post Process dialog box, click on the indicated "..." and select a local folder to write the code to. When the file name dialog box comes up, you can confirm the location and file name.

For some reason it does not give me the ability to select a local storage device. The only option it shows is the cloud based storage. I cant tell if there is some permission I need to grant to Fusion so that it can look at my computer. The attachment below is what I see when I expand the output folder.

I see that path also at first, then you use the drop down symbol and browse to any folder you desire. You need to configure your Windows File Explorer to show the drives and folders on the left as I have in my Screencast, it will make life a lot easier.

I appreciate you helping me out with this problem. Unfortunately when I click the drop down menu at the top of the file explorer it does not give me any options. I work for a school and i'm thinking that there may be a security feature enabled that is preventing fusion from being able to access my hard drive. Unless you can think of another reason this is happening, I will talk to my System Administrator and see if we can figure out a reason for this on our end.

Thank you!

Go talk to the Administrator, I am sure that is the reason. Schools are really tight on security especially if you are using their equipment.
