Shapr3D was updated to 5.660.7190.0 when I opened it today.  
Now I am unable to export any of my drawings. I just get a popup “Export Failed”  
Trying some things I discovered that if there is a ’ / ’ in the file name it wont export it. Yet the versions before did that.

Here is the thing, I don’t mind updates, but you should be more informative on a error situation. IF it would have just simply said Error, bad filename or give a reason for the error would have saved me allot of time. Also, if certain things cause problems like this you should not let someone name the file that way.
