Unable to export models after update

After updating a little while ago, Fusion360 is unable to finish the translation of a model exported to an STL. The program otherwise operates as expected, but I can't export anything. The translation queue also shows a file that I haven't specifically named that is modeled after the parent name and a version. This may or may not be normal, as I saw this before the update when everything worked fine. I've found that restarting the program will allow me to export one file, sometimes. Regardless of success, the problem is back and no exports at all will go through. I have to restart for every single export, sometimes multiple times. I also uninstalled Fusion360 and reinstalled, but the problem persists. Any ideas?

 

As an update, I've found that success or failure seems to depend upon the name I've chosen. Custom names are much more likely to fail. Repeating suggested names (File and version number) that were previously exported but renamed/deleted will also fail. The problem is frequent but also inconsistent so its been hard to narrow down, but appears to be related to the name and the online translation service? I'm not sure what to try next...

Thanks for the link, similar issue but doesn't appear to solve my problem. I'm exporting directly to a file, and not sending to a 3D slicer. I'm also not using the online version.

Restarting the program does matter, but so does the name of the file.
