        The file it couldn't be, think something went wrong with Autosave, reinstall Sketchup.
        I lost my 4 hour job yesterday, today almost the same thing happened!

          Don't ever rely on AutoSave - it's the backup when the wheels fall off...
          Save you model regularly - 4 hours of lost work could be 20 minutes if you saved more frequently....

          PS: the file path in the error certainly looked FUBAR !

            So autosave just "went bad" out of the blue? It worked well before?

                Auto save settings stand for 5 minutes, nothing was changed, previously worked perfectly.
                PS: I still can't repair the program. I'll do it next week.

                  Huh, weird. I have the exact same setting except for the "Show Welcome Window". Should be default as I haven't changed it since I installed 2020. I'm sort of psycho about saving. I learned CAD back in '89 on DOS and I got into the habit of saving every little bit JUST. IN. CASE! πŸ˜‰ I mean like every few minutes I save the file. No matter if it's AutoCAD, SU, Blender, Form Z, Adobe..whatever.

                    This is severe bug in last 3 versions (in v2020 fortunately still didn't see it, but some guys in the office did). I noticed it happens when file gets rather complex with lots of Acad files inserted. The only way to save the work is (portion by portion) copy-paste model to a new empty file (without acad linework and purge it.

                      This document used an Autocad file for house modeling ...... maybe that was the reason, but I would like to say that the problems on both days started with the import of roofing from 3d Warehouse, in any case it was not observed before.

                        IDK maybe file size is a trigger..
