      Hi all,

      I'm a beginner in Sketchup and start learning about this great tool. However, since I've installed the software, each time I'm clicking on a function, to draw a rectangle, create guides with the meter tool or anything else, Sketchup is opening a web page to provide me information on the tool or function I'm using. It's very anoying, as I need to close that page and gets back to sketchup at every click in the software...
      Before it was just opening a pop-up asking to download or open an html file.. I've clicked open and don't ask again, and now it directly open within web browser.

      Does anyone have experienced that before ?
      I'm looking in something to deactivate in the help menu, but didn't find anything..?
      Sorry for my english or american, it might not be perfect, I'm french.

      Thanks for your help !

        not sure why it's going wrong, but it's the Instructor...

        @unknownuser said:

        As you use SketchUp, the Instructor and the status bar give you pointers on using each tool.

        The Instructor teaches you how to use the currently selected tool. To turn on the Instructor, shown here, open the Instructor dialog box in the Default Tray , or click the question mark icon in the status bar. Here’s what the Instructor has to offer:

        An animation that shows basic use of the selected tool
        A description of what the tool does
        Steps for using the tool, which correspond to the animation
        Modifier keys that enable the tool perform additional functions
        Links to Knowledge Center articles about advanced functions of the tool

        If you try turning it off and on it Default Tray, it may stop opening in your browser...
