Trying to boot fusion 360, when installing fresh it says its setting up, but its stuck on a black screen, theres no menus or anything. Ive tried the cleaner tool, nothing. Ive ran it as administrator, nothing. There is no "user" file to find and delete. I have looked trough what other people have been doing and NOTHING works!!!

Take a look at this website to locate the log file "autodesk.webdeploy.streamer.log".  You can attach it to your post for others to diagnose and/or you can use this article to try and find your installation error in it.  It is sort of confusing the way it is listed but if you scroll through it, text file, you will be looking for error listing.

The main error is that the Windows Registry is locked.  Open the log file and read the last line which is duplicated a few times through out the log.  You cannot install on top of another installation no matter what the applications are.  Make sure you are logged into your computer with an account that has read and write permissions to all files including the registry.   You should follow this website and clean up what you have now and then restart your computer.  When you log in make sure you use an account that can read and write "all" folders and write to the registry.  I would also, for the logged in user, temporarily disable User Access Control (UAC), temporarily disable any Anti-Virus application and when you get to the installation file, right click on it and chose "Run as Administrator".

Be patient, the installation must finish!!!!  Good luck.

I forgot to mention, make sure you have a viable internet connection and you are using TLS 1.1 or 1.2.  These setting are found under Internet Options, Advanced Tab under Security.

I tried everything you suggested and no cigar, it did not work, at this point i do not know what to do! How would i be able to make it so my account can read and write "all" registry folders? I tried to do so on my security panel but no luck!

Windows security settings begin with the user account.  Go to your user account listing in the Windows control panel and verify you log in credentials.  The account you log in and use should have administrator permissions.

Another issue, called out in your log file, is the inability to connect to the Autodesk Server that has the deployment of Fusion 360.  Right click on your Windows icon, lower left corner, and chose Command Prompt (Admin) and then type in this command "Ping 23.61.209.28" (without the quotes).  You should get three replies with some timing information.  if you get something else that indicates the server was not reached, that is one of your main problems.

Approx roundtrip time in miliseconds: 
minimum: 21ms maximum = 26ms Average = 24ms

Well I am out of suggestions.  You should go through the entire process again, being very deliberate to do each step in sequence.  If it works, great, if not then you will have a new log file to troubleshoot further.  One thing to add to the process is use the Task Manager and make sure there are no instances or processes or Fusion 360 active at EVERY step.
