Idk why my whole sketch is turning all green in manufacture and it won't cut the hole I made in (simulation).

I'm making a fimple washer  2"X2" with a 0.6 center whole.

That option only shows up in the Manufacture environment, and you are in the Design space 😉

I can toss out a bunch of suggestions and you can post back one at a time as to what work, or we can take the shorter route to the answer: Please share your file.

Oh. Does your machine REALLY have a .55" Kerf Width (seen in your Tool Definition)?

The issue is that the Kerf size versus the hole size, in conjunction with your lead-in/out settings is preventing the toolpath from calculating. Change the Kerf to reflect actual, and then adjust your lead-in/out setting to suit.

I haven't the foggiest, but I'd suspect in the .06 to .1" range
