        Have you tried opening it by clicking on an SU file? i think there are some problems with it on vista that stop it opening from the icon for soem reason.

          Note that you need to install SU on Vista with administrator rights (right lick the installer and do it from there). Also,AFAIK the best is to start SU (for the first time) the same way.

                  I don't think you do but also I'm on XP so cannot suggest anything for sure. Hope a Vista user chimes in soon.

                    I installed SketchUp as administrator and now I can just double click on the icon and I don't get an error message. Although ometimes Vista does lots of weird things.
