        The RB file has a very strange name: "Recall_last_tool%5Bv1.2%5D.rb" and its installation caused a bugsplat in SU17. I changed RB name to "Recall_last_tool" and bugsplat didn't appear anymore 😄

          Actually it shows up that way when you download it because Windows doesn't resolve the square brackets in file names. You could have edited the file name and removed %5B and %5D and been just fine.

            Hi!

            This plugin works well with native SU tools but causes serious problems when combined with plugins. For example: when I perform RotaScale (ThomThom), 3D Rotate (Eneroth) or Free rotate (TIG) and then try to Recall it, it leads to bugsplat.

            When I use Extrude Lines [D. Bur], then Recall Last Tool it just "omits" it and brings a native tool I used proviously.

            I'd really like to test it with more plugins and see what happens but it takes too long, with one bugsplat after another...

                This is a very old plugin...

                When you installed its RBZ it will have added a RB file into your Plugins folder.
                Looks like this is loading and breaking things.

                It's named something like:
                Recall_last_tool%5Bv1.2%5D.rb

                Open your Plugins folder and remove it...
                Then retry starting SketchUp...

                Your profile says you use v8 [but that is very old and I suspect it's out of date !], but if it is so then your Plugins folder is probably here:
                C:\Program Files\SketchUp\SketchUp 8\Plugins

                Otherwise if you have a newer version it's probably found here:
                C:\Users\YOUR_USER_NAME\AppData\Roaming\SketchUp\SketchUp 2017\SketchUp\Plugins

                That AppData folder might be hidden by default, but pasting the full path in a Windows Explorer window's top-bar should open it, otherwise reset your Folder-Options to show hidden content...

                  Eneroth has a similar extension, not free though. SU2016 + only.

                        Hello Matt,

                        This is a very old thread, but I have to give it a shot. I'm running latest SketchUp - V21.1. Extensions I install are (.rbz) file type, but the file you have here for download is (.rb). How can I install it?

                        I needed a tool to repeat last command since I started working on SketchUp 3 years ago! I really, really wish to have it. Thank you

                          To install a lone RB file you need to put it into your Plugins folder...
                          C:\Users\YOUR_USER_NAME\AppData\Roaming\SketchUp\SketchUp 2021\SketchUp\Plugins
                          Restart SketchUp to see if it loads OK...
                          It is an old plugin...
