Hello @Zbigniew.Krysa,
one of the possible temporary workaround can be trying to use different drawing template or recreating one that you are using currently. Let us know if this suggestion is helpful. As my colleague mentioned, in the meantime we will try to find solution for this issue.

Thank you @Zbigniew.Krysa for an update.
I was thinking of creating a new drawing template or recreating the one used so far by using the "New drawing template" option, and then using it to re-create the drawing based on the model. I realize this may take some time, but until the problem is solved this workaround may be helpful.

Hi @Zbigniew.Krysa ,
I hope you are using the latest version of Fusion (2.0.10564). We have made some fixes to avoid such issues in this version.
Also we are in process of making follow-up changes such that user can recover the file if they come across such situation. We have tested your file with latest change and we are able to recover the file without any data loss. This fix is going through validation and shall be available very soon. Be assured that you will be able to restore all sheets from the drawings.
Until then I hope you will not face any issue with new drawings created. Please let us know if you come across such issues for new drawings created with latest version of Fusion.
Thanks,

Hi @Zbigniew.Krysa ,
As I informed earlier, both of your shared drawings get opened correctly with our ongoing fix. This fix should be available soon.
But to go more deeper into this problem we are trying to understand why the file corruption dialog coming up for these particular drawings. It would be great if you can provide some information.
1. We observed that both of your drawings are created for same model. Did you face similar issue for any drawing created for other model? If yes, can you please share it?
2. Do you remember any specific operation you performed which caused this problem?
Thanks in advance for the information.

Dear Pramod Kadam,
Thank You for Your post and for Your involvement in solving this issue. Below You will find my answers for Your questions:
1. This issue happened only with this model, but it was connected not only exactly with this single model but also with copies (I saved this model with different names in separate files). I have never faced this issue with other models created in Fusion 360.
2. There are a few operations which makes me wondering is could be the reason of this issue:
a) There was a version of this file (I can still find it in the history I suppose) where I deleted many items: unwanted construction surfaces and unwanted sketches - it was about 100 items. I'm wondering is this operation made my file unstable.
b) This file I've started to create in previous update and have been continue in last update.
c) This model is only one I have noticed to loose "appearance" (I mean wood appearance assigned to a few parts is permanently changed to dark steel appearance after reloading or changing visibility of a parts). Please have a look topic: "Model is permanently loosing material appearance after last update" placed 08-08-2021 on the forum.
d) This model is only one I noticed to look very bad with shaded look on a drawing. Please see the subject "Why front view of a shading object looks so ugly on a drawing" placed 04-08-2021.
e) The another operation which can be reason of this issue is saving both of the files (3d model and drawing). I noticed the issue happened after when I was saving both files (model and drawing) quite often (2-3 times per 10 minutes). It's a Irony because I wanted to prevent this issue in this way. It' s good also to ask You why 3d model is saving automatically just after placing the part into drawing? For example It happens when I change a visibility of single parts and put it into drawing. I noticed that I have 20 version of model more just after creating a few sheets of drawing. So the conclusion is that maybe automatic saving and manual saving of drawing caused the issue when are made in the same time in some cases.
f) Sometimes the information appears:
It appears when Fusion 360 is minimized or software is not on the top of all windows.
I hope these informations will be helpful. I have also a Hope Your fix will be released soon and solve this issue because right now I really afraid savings. I'm working with my model with "pdf backup files" which is a poor workaround.
Have a nice day

I can tell you why you get this error. Fusion can not make a backup if you have a command running. It can happen in any of the workspaces if you start a command then leave it running, could be leaving a sketch in edit mode, the measure tool or looking at your message you've started the dimension tool then switched away to another program or minimised with the dimension tool still active. It doesn't really matter but you will not get any auto saves of backups until you end the command and Fusion can save at the next scheduled time.

Hello Mark,
it's very interesting what You're saying but I have repeated steps You mentioned (created drawing, change visibility to proceed autosave, run dimension tool, saved both files) and no issue appeared. I mean both of the files could open correctly. Maybe small update to my potential causes of this bug will be helpful:
That's not what I said causes the error message. If you open a drawing, start the dimension tool then switch to another program for half an hour leaving Fusion in the background with the dimension tool still active you'll get the error because Fusion can not make an backup while a command is running. This only affects backup saves nothing else.

I hope you are doing great. The new version of Fusion is released today. This includes fix for file corruption issues. Please check your affected files. You should be able to 'Continue' even if the file corruption dialog appears and the file will be recovered without any data loss.Once you save the file, you will not get the file corruption dialog again.
Please check and let us know your feedback.
Thanks again for your patience.
