Freezing while Opening Design

[evanmolina.portfolio]

I have a particular project giving me issues right now and will not open. It loads to the point where the Browser and Timeline are populated, but then it hangs up and ultimately crashes. I've noticed that while crashing, CPU usage is very high (40-70% utilization)

The project does load successfully in the browser based A360.

I am able to load some previous versions in Fusion and continue, but this is unpredictable and leads to loss of progress.

Solutions I've tried so far to no avail:

Clearing Cache Data under Support & Diagnostics

Loading in A360 and exporting to F3Z, then using Import As New Version in Fusion

Updated Graphics Drivers

Updated Windows

One of your options is to download the top level assembly from A360 in some other format, it will not be pretty loosing all of your timeline but at least you will have a model you can Direct Edit and move forward with a new timeline.  Attached is a zip file containing both a STEP and a SAT file download of your assembly, take your pick.  I would choose the STEP file, it preserves the Browser structure better.

Thank you j!

I think opening a previous version and losing a bit of progress will be more desirable.. I just don't want this to keep happening. It's the 3rd time I've encountered it on this particular project and while I'm glad I can fall back on previous saves.. it's far from an ideal workflow and I always wonder if the work I'm doing will need to be redone haha.

With your solution I guess the problem wouldn't persist.. but a loss of history at this stage wouldn't work for me 😞

An additional solution I've tried since posting was a clean reinstall of Fusion, which also didn't help.
