You need a new email address to register as a hobbyist then all should be well - just set up a yahoo or gmail account :clap:

It might be worth having a quick look at designspark mechanical before spending money unless you are already an Autocad expert. It is free, does 3D modelling and can output .stl and .dxf and it doesn't have that annoying renewal problem.
Most importantly it appears to be not very difficult to learn.

Fusion 360 did its updates and now wont work , get a message insufishent data and will now go online and shuts down , tried downloading Autocad 18 thet failed to install , will have to uninstall every thing and try again .

What I am reading here (and in other similar posts on other forums) leads me to put Fusion360 and similar "free as in free beer" CADs far from my mind, really. Imagine after investing hours or days in learning the thing, and then they decide that they don't want non-paying customers that much anymore. Like CADSoft/Eagle earlier this year. *Shudder*. Guess if/when Sketchup packs up, I'll give FreeCAD a look-see; last time I checked that one out, usability was rather "meh".
