Fusion 360 window not visible

I have run fusion without issue for 2 years now. woke up my PC from sleep like usual and now in fusion360 hell.

 

Attempting to launch fusion 360. I get the splash and an application in the task bar but no visible window. It shows up as a blank window in alt+tab and win+tab UI interfaces.   Windows 10 OS i9900k 64gb ram samsung 970 rtx 3080

 

I have tried all of these and it always acts the same.

 

repair utility, reset utility, network check, uninstall via utility. all multiple times

reinstalled at least 4 times now (on my metered bandwidth connection btw. thanks for not providing a complete exe, i really enjoy hour+ long installs and burning my bandwidth up on this nonsense night after night.)

win+arrow keys (all the time, i keep hoping this hell will end), the app is nowhere to be found on any invisible screen.

disconnected 2nd screen

setting main screen to 1920x1080 60hz instead of 2560x1080 144hz and disabled gsync

no integrated gpu to try, only RTX 3080

updated to newest nvidia driver 528.02 (clean installed)

tried win10 safe mode w/ networking

tried enabling win8 compatibility on both the desktop shortcut AND the fusion360.exe file deep in appdata

updated windows every which way to sunday

ooshutup set to windows default with all the built in spyware bloat enabled again

tried both environment variable fixes

deleted all %appdata% related to autodesk/f360 on every ininstall

no registries to find after proper uninstalls

updated Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable

 

help

Edit: notice NO indication that there is a pop up blocking the main window from being manipulated. JUST BLANK WHITE

WHY WHY WHY DID YOU MAKE THE ACTIVE SESSION LIMIT POP UPS NOT RESPOND TO WIN+ARROW. WHY WHY WHY. 3 DAAAYYYS of my life WASTED.

 

SELECT THE FUSION 360 APPLICATION AND USE ALT+SPACE!!!!! then CLICK MOVE AND THEN STOP! push the ARROW KEYS after clicking move. the pop up window will appear in your screen

 

holly molly what on gods green earth would posses you to do this to people???

 

For the record I have not changed my screen configuration in MONTHS. This issue started out of the blue for no reason.

I would also like to add that I feel like most pop ups from F360 behave this way. I should have had a login pop up at some point after blowing away fusion so many times and deep cleaning it. ALSO why did Autodesk discontinue the downloadable deep cleaner? I found several posts referencing a dead link to this tool that would have made my life less hell like the last few days.

I have just experienced this problem and would like to thank you for the solution ( tested and working).

 

I agree that this does not seem logical and would elude a high percentage of users (without your post!)

 

I find it ironic that Autodesk has not officially replied/responded to this post in any shape or form.

 

Thank you once more.
