Fusion 360 Hanging on Launch

[Anonymous]

I realise this is a common issue and its usually solved by clean uninstall / reinstall but this time the standard practices arent working for me....

Issue: Fusion hangs on launch (non responsive).

Machine: Win10PC with decent spec, up to date OS, drivers etc, Windows defender AV only. Has run Fusion for ~5y ok.

Attempts to resolve:

• Run exe as admin
• Uninstall via windows tool + reinstall (same issue)
• Uninstall manually as per the support article + reinstall (same issue)
• Uninstall using automated tool (Fusion Cleaner) + reinstall (same issue)
• Manually clean autodesk DIRs as per support article + reinstall (same issue)
• This has happened before and been solved via reinstalls, Ive done everything thats worked before and also everything in the troubleshooter form

Basically no way to open the software I can think of.

Any suggestions other than buying a new machine?

Hi,

try this:

1. Create a new  Win user > avoid special characters

2. Install Fusion and start with your "old'" Fusion account

I'm not going to create separate user just to handle a f360 issue. Just not a viable longterm workaround.

I've bit the bullet and rebuilt my pc.
