Hi @jerrybaffetto,
I am having difficulty reproducing this, but you are not the only user affected. There might be some external factor in common. If possible, please attach a DxDiag report for any affected devices to help us profile this issue.
- Press the Windows Key+R for Run
- Type DxDiag and press Enter
- In the DxDiag window, click Save All Information
- Upload the file here
- Please note - this report contains usernames, which are often based on personally identifying information (i.e. your name). If you prefer, you can edit this out of the text file, or directly message me a hosted link.
I'd also be interested in any unique traits about the directory or folders, e.g. synced/backed up by a cloud storage application e.g. OneDrive, or configured with OS-level features like encryption, file compression, or a different "owner" in the eyes of the Windows system. The contents of the folders may be a clue, too - even if the folders are seemingly random, they might have similar content types, such as something that might generate a [corrupted] thumbnail.
We might as well consider the hardware, too - examples include whether the drive is connected in any special way such as USB/Thunderbolt/network, or the make/model/format/configuration of the physical drive itself.
The next time the crash happens, check if there is a related entry in the Windows Event Viewer, located in the Start Menu under Windows Administrative Tools, or simply search for Event Viewer. In the left column under Windows Logs are a few category pivots - the two we're most interested in are Application and System - depending on the nature of the error, a timestamped event might be logged related to Fusion 360, or the underlying Windows disk and Explorer process. If you see anything of note, please let us know.
