Fusion 360 Suddenly Crashed And Wont Open - Mac OS

[Anonymous]

After running flawlessly for two weeks, Fusion suddenly pinwheeled and crashed. Now, it won't open back up. I double click and nothing happens. It doesn't even attempt to reopen. Im running OS Mojave 10.14.6.

Hi,

I can't find a crash report. If you see those it's helpful to send in.

That said, you should not be failing to start right now. Can you try restarting the computer and then try again please? I just want to eliminate all the basic steps first. After that if Fusion will not start we'll have to look into the log files.

One another thing to try apart from the restart suggested by Phil, is to see if something happened to the shortcut (assuming that you are launching using the short cut). You can search for Fusion in the spotlight and see if launching from there works? Again eliminating all the obvious ones.

Rajkumar,

Thank you, it turns out that was the issue. The program had updated last night and had saved the new program in my Users folder, rather than Applications, leaving the shortcuts invalid. Everything works now.
