Sometimes it simply stops launching until the installer is run again to put it back in ~/Library. There is no reason we should have to reinstall Fusion for each user on a machine.Īlso it occasionally breaks when moved to /Applications. The problem is that if you put an app in the user's home directory, it's not installed for all users. You remember New Coke? This is stupider than that.
Sorry if my reply comes across as a bit snippy, but this is honestly the stupidest decision ever made. It shouldn't take people more than five seconds to get to an application to open it, even if it takes a minute or so for the program to launch.īut now I'm curious why anyone at Autodesk thinks this is an unreasonable request? For a program to install itself in the same place as everything else? The reason I am finding it frustrating is that I wanted to open Fusion 360 a half hour ago. Because you also shouldn't require that users keep the application in the dock forever. What I consider to be broken an in need of "fixing" is installing to a completely obscure folder and require users to do an internet search for "fusion 360 install location" to find where it went. So I guess what I meant when I said "just fix it" was "make it so Fusion installs itself into the main /Applications folder, like (again) LITERALLY EVERY OTHER APPLICATION.
It shouldn't be too hard to understand why users, who are used to finding literally every other application in the main /Applications folder, are frustrated by having to write scripts and dig through Application Support folders to find the install. There may be a reason "why" it happens, but the best result in those threads is an automator script, and sorry if I disagree that users should have to write custom scripts just top open an application. The issue has been asked many times and never has anyone ever gotten a satisfactory answer. The issue I'm facing is that Fusion 360 installs itself into an obscure folder that cannot be found unless you know what you're looking for.
