You want to probably use 2D Pocket as the toolpath. I did not set multiple depths or add a finishing cut, that is up to you. Model is attached.

Did you look at the previously submitted file. I believe you should be using the 2D Pocket toolpath. Model attached.

You issue is caused by the fact you are trying to use a 3/4" dia end mill to cut a 3/4" wide slot. Change your end mill dia to 1/2" and it simulates perfectly. I will not return you model since it is a very straight forward change.

In your supplied file, you had specified "Stock to Leave" in your toolpath. I did not change this as I assumed you wanted to run a finishing toolpath later on. I took this off, Simulated the cut, exported the finished model and measured the slots, they all measure 0.75" wide.

The same setting, "Stock to Leave" is still activated. This is your issue. Take a finishing pass or remove this setting.

The supplied model does not make an sense and does not reflect your request. Please verify your model and resubmit.

Attached in your model. Two of the additional slots were sketched on the bottom of the plate so that was why you were having difficulty creating them. I did not move the sketches, I just Extruded them with a different process. You do realize the added slots are a different width where all of the original ones were .75 wide. Also, you have numerous sketches in your model that are not fully constrained. I went through and updated some of them.
I have also changed your setup stock size so it is using the model for the size instead of a Relative size plate. I believe this was contributed to your depth of cut issue since Relative size plate adds a small amount of material to thickness.
I do not know the final desired sizes of your machined project, so I can only go by what I see. Where it seems that the angled pockets are at 40 degrees from the horizontal, they are not but some very weird angle around 40.6 degrees and the angle was not dimensioned. I added this dimension but it varies from pocket to pocket, please verify.
You really need to study up on the proper methods of modeling in Fusion 360 as your methods are incomplete and inaccurate. I will leave this this thought, review all your dimensions, add and correct the ones missing or inaccurate as the cutting of these pockets is only as accurate as your layout and setup. Model is attached.
