Hi @Anonymous,

 

Hmmm, you should be able to still hit save and have it save to the offline cache (which is on the computer). Is the export option in the File menu available as well? If not, does toggling the offline switch within Fusion manually seem to change this behavior?

 

As far as local file storage, we do keep crash recoveries, and local offline cache storage local to the machine (as well as any manual exports of files you do). Granted, if this is in a school and on their computers, you may need to ask a teacher/IT admin to find the files as they are embedded in the local user profile which typically is denied access to students in a school environment.

 

Let me know if you want more information as to where these are stored.

 

Thanks,

I have the same issue. I think it has to do something with the free-trial what is finished on my side. I saw online that if your free-trial is finished and you use 'Fusion360' not professional you can still use it for free. But now I can't save my files anymore and am I only available to export my file as a .f3d file. Because my slicer is using .stl and I can't convert the files I am screwed. Also I see a 'lock' icon next to the name of my projects, I think it has something to do with that, but I am not sure.

Has anyone an idea what is wrong and what I can do to fix it? 

 

Kind regards,
