DXF Export Dialog window timing issue when saving out to server

We run Fusion 360 at work and create drawings as part of designing our products daily.

 

Typically I will need a number of DXFs from a single design to transfer to various CNC machinery. (We use a large format router, Laser and dragknife cutter every day as well as having metal components laser cut elsewhere. We also have a CNC lathe and mill but don't use Fusion code to program them.)

 

My issue for about the last month or so has been when I go to save out a dxf - right click on drawing in browser list, click save as DXF and follow the menu prompts to connect to our server and save it in our customer file to make sure it can be accessed from anywhere around the factory -

The dialog window to select where and type in teh name for the file has terribly short timing. If you don't manage to find the correct folder and type the name in under about 10 secs it just closes and you have to start all over again. I have been working around it by having a temp folder on the desktop to where I just save the DXFs with a single letter name then, rename and move to the required destination.

 

It adds double the time and more operations when I get asked by the shopfloor to provide them with drawings.
