AutoDesk Fusion 360: Do Not Install It

I installed it hoping that I could use it for CAD/CAM but decided that it was easier to write my own gCode instead of learning how to use it.  There are gobs of AutoDesk authored YouTube videos, but they are all for older versions and are not useful. I tried to uninstall it but it will not: python errors.  There are instructions from AutoDesk about how to remove it with a special cleaner; it does not work.  Nor do the manual uninstall directions.

  1. I wonder if this is why there are specific job postings for people with Fusion 360 experience. AKA, companies bought it and now can't make it work.

  2. I am sure it works. The learning curve did not justify it for my purposes. I just want it gone.

  3. I use IO-Bit Uninstaller for sweeping difficult programs off the computer.

  4. Jerry: Thanks. Still gives a Python error msg, but seems to be removing it anyway.
