Recent Fusion 360 keeps loosing version and not saving in the cloud. How to work OFFLINE ONLY

[carmamir]

So latest update is horrible. In total in last 4 days I have lost roughly 6 HOURS OF WORK !!!

Tested on two machines, happens on both (one i9 10900k, 128GB ddr4, nvme drives, RTX 3090, second i9 9900k, 64GB, nvme drives, GTX 1080).

Basically, I can work until the crash (it is crashing often, everything is done on 2020/2040 extrusions, no mesh), so I've started recently saving every few minutes... And oh boy, as always fusion 360 finally crashed (randomly 30-120 minutes) and TADA, all my last saves are not in the cloud, version went from v39 to v33. I WAS CHECKING at least 3 days if it saved (it saved as version changed and updated was also changed).

After restart several version are missing from freaking cloud and looking for a solution to work only OFFLINE without that broken cloud provided by autodesk.

Is there a way to full work with just work saved on hard drives in a way that it would bypass saving anything in the cloud???

Would that help with missing versions after fusion 360 crash ?

I really like fusion 360, but boy recently I've lost sooo much work that I cannot handle it and start re-considering Solidworks after couple years. 

It was working fine last time I was using it, but recent update is just horrible

I would also love to dump this cloud.

I took a look at our backend to see the crash errors reports submitted from you. I found one from a couple of days back. 

1. Are these crashes that you are experiencing a quit exit of the product or do you get a crash error report to submit to Autodesk? If you do get the error reports can you please send us each of them? 

2. In the one crash report we received, it seems to show something about appearance/material set in the design. Would it be possible to share a design where you are seeing these random crashes (and any particular workflows during which you are seeing them)?

3. Regarding the missing saved versions, can you please go to Job status/ data and see if there are any pending uploads in there? When you close Fusion do you get a message that there are pending uploads in the queue? 

4. Can you also please go to help->support and diagnostics-> Diagnostics logs. This will generate a zip file that you can attach here. This should give us some insights into why this is happening.
