Fusion
Are you talking about 2d drawings or designs? When you say drawings most people will assume you are talking about 2d drawings.

Thanks for your reply.
I am talking about 2D engineering drawings (right click on the component and select generate drawing). Sorry if I am somehow misusing this terminology.
You're using the correct terminology, just wanted to make sure as a lot of others make the mistake of calling their 3d designs drawings.
@ClintBrown3D Might be able to look up the crash report.

You can right click the top component in the browser and select do not capture history but I'm not sure it will make much difference to 2d drawing.
With the timeline you should try fixing errors as soon as they are created as it's easier if you know what caused the error. Don't know if you can share the designs, if you can share them when you run into problems for advice.

@kevin399ML Some advice for future projects. Have you read the Rule #1 post? Create self contained components as much as possible if you think you'll need them in another design. Better still create standard components in separate designs and just insert them.
If you need to create a component in an assembly keep references to other components to a minimum, turn off all the auto project options in preferences and only project what you need. Don't sketch directly on the face of other components, create a plane to sketch on, it will be easier to fix when a reference is lost. Don't use Create Components from bodies as that's will cause problems if you copy paste to another document.
Some other ways to get a part from another design. Derive will let you grab a component from another design and keep it linked so edits will propagate from the source design. Another option is you can copy a body from one design and paste it into a Base Feature in another. This way you get a part without any history like importing a part from the insert menu parts suppliers.
As for not fixing errors. Fusion will run slower in large projects if there are errors\warnings and edits will be unpredictable so not a good idea.
