I find myself very frequently saving my files because Fusion crashes so much these days (most times there is no error report) and losing up to 5 minutes or more of work each time is tedious and can create serious toolpath problems.

@rhetths 

Have you tried changing in Preferences?

You should observe that it can only be changed in increments of 5 minutes starting with minimum of 5 minutes.

 

Are these crashes only occurring in Manufacture Workspace?

Are you sending in crash reports when they do pop up?

Have you observed certain workflows that seem to be prone to crashing more often?

Yes, i have it set at 5 minutes, but losing 5 minutes of work regularly, and very regularly saving my work to try to avoid losing that, really shouldn't be the new thing in the 21st Century.

 

The crashes seem liable to occur at any time, but i don't pay a lot of attention to what i am doing when they occur, because sometimes the crashes happen at the same time as the computer has to process something, whereas sometimes it seems totally random.

 

When it prompts for a crash report i submit one, but most of the time the prompt does not come up.  Overall, it seems almost daily that i discover another issue with Fusion.  The program seems as shadow of it's former self.  I am treading water trying to achieve things with it.

 

If i posted up every new flaw i discover in Fusion, i would be posting almost daily and not getting much work done.
