First up, this is something an update should never do. I've lost years of tweaks to my default settings. All heights, lead in, lead out, cutter comp, even smoothing has been turned off for every toolpath. Pretty ridiculous.

 

Second, how do I recover from this?

My home PC has not been updated yet. Presumably that still has a copy of my previous default settings.

Is there a settings file in AppData that I can backup and copy/import to my work PC?

Man, that sucks. It's a random event that doesn't effect everyone and it's proven quite difficult to track down that cause of this issue.

You can export your defaults here:

Thanks Seth.

As this is a random event, might it be sensible for Fusion to auto export this before an update is started? Don't even tell the user, just create it on the off chance a recovery is needed?

The CAM cycles really are mission critical for some of us, having the settings mess up like this could be disastrous.

This has been happening to me for several weeks now. Everytime I close the app and log off, when I open back up my saved user defaults are gone. Very frustrating.
