      I'm trying to free up disk space. Will uninstalling SU 2015, 2106 & 2017 compromise my 2018 Pro installation ? I was worried the uninstall might take with it some crucial files.

        Each SketchUp version installs independently.
        So uninstalling an older version should not affect other versions.

        However, bear in mind any custom Plugins, Materials, Components and Styles which you may have saved within subfolders relating to the earlier version.
        Perhaps a good time to do some spring-cleaning ?
        Those custom folders/files will get left behind after the version's uninstallation, so look through them and salvage anything you really really need to copy over to the newer version's equivalent folders.
        Note that with Plugins it's always best to reinstall fresh versions from RBZ - then you'll have the latest compatible version - manually moving Plugins files and subfolders is a recipe for disaster !
