Reduce sign-in frequency or remember user account on personal computers

Reduce sign-in frequency or remember user account on personal computers

Nowadays I am not using Fusion 360 very often, more like every other weekend or so, which means that every single time I start the application I have to sign-in again (I suspect there is an expiry time while not used) on my private computer.

This is rather unpleasant to have to deal with so often, and it makes Fusion 360 feel like just another web site that forces you to login just to annoy you, because this is how I am greeted every single time.

Could you please add a "remember me" checkbox or at least extend the expiry time?

And while I am at it, it would appear that during loading, Fusion 360 makes between four and six calls to the Windows API for bringing its window to the foreground.

Since the loading is slow in the order of 10-30 seconds, I would expect to be able to switch to another application in the meantime, but the application forces the focus back to its currently still unresponsive window. Windows is a multitasking OS, and a user knowledgeable enough to use a CAD program is proficient enough to check back to Fusion 360 after a while when it is ready, there is no need to force this upon the user.

This feature is known as focus stealing and is actually a rather common problem, but it should be a really easy fix.

this would also reduce the costs at autodesk side because less sms with the 2factor code will be reduced.
