I have a project, and the model is supposed to be version 49 because I clicked to save it, but then fusion ran out of system memory, taking up 44GB(like it always does). I waited an hour, and nothing happened(like always) so I had to force quit fusion. It was not able to correctly save version 49 so I was not able to open it. In order to retrieve the backup files I went to this directory(since im on mac): ~/Library/Application Support/Autodesk/Autodesk Fusion 360/<GUID>/CrashRecovery.I did this all in the terminal, I was able to find the GUID and locate the backup files. I used cp command to copy the files back into my Downloads folder, changed it to .f3d, and uploaded it to fusion. I waited hours and there was no progress. Why can't I upload it? (the project is only 281MB)

This is the first time I have been able to save the design without my computer running out of application memory. It only takes about 30MB this time, I was able to save the design for once. I am very thankful
