      As far as I know it's nothing to do with the PluginStore.
      SketchUp seems to choke of your apostrophe ' ?
      I can get it to do it on my mock user too - TIG's 😒
      I have a thread in separate SketchUp forum discussing this.
      Some MAC users report similar but slightly different ' issues...
      I need more PC feedback...
      We are making progress slowly...

        It has been a few days since I contacted SU about the problem, so it's possible that they made some adjustment within that time, but for whatever reason it was still necessary for me to get rid of those extraneous files (or to just reboot before re-installing) because whenever I tried to remove and reinstall the program it would still have the same issues.

          Thanks to all.

          Just wondering, if it would be possible to put in the Store, a small icon, that indicated the plugin is 2014 ready?

          Will attack this problem next week.

          Thanks to all.

            Trimble have just confirmed to me by PM that it is an issue that was discovered in the last few days, and that will be fixed in the next MR of v2014.
            If you have a single-quote ' in your Windows user-name it can [will?] screw up the plugins loading from your personal Plugins folder.

              It will. Apologies to all the Irish out there.

                For example the Parametric Grid plugin is now called Grid Tool and was updated on the 10th of January.

                Dave (or other SU guru) --

                I had the same load errors with Parametric Grid, so searched the forum and found this thread, then went to the Extension Warehouse and dowloaded the updated Grid Tool.

                Before installing it, I have deleted the old plugin. My question is whether the Parametric.rb helper script is used by any other extensions, or whether I can delete that too?

                Thanks,

                Doug

                  Doug, I expect you can delete it but I would test it first. Rename it from ".rb" to ".rb!" The change in extension will prevent it from loading. Then start SketchUp and see if you get any error messages in the ruby Console. If you have a plugin loading that requires and it isn't found, there should be an error.

                    Thanks for the quick reply Dave.

                    I'll test it as you suggest before deleting it.
