Fredo Corner Not Showing in Extensions Menu

mstewart

I purchased Fredo Corner extension & License. Validated license, Downloaded everything, and no matter what I do, the Fredo Corner extension is not showing up in my Sketchup Extensions Menu. Please help! I paid for everything and I'm getting NOTHING for it! Many thanks to all who offer help! Currently using Sketchup 2023.

Fredo Corner resides under Tools > Fredo Collection > Fredo Corner

Can you do the following:

Run the Window > Libfredo Settings > Fredo6 Plugins Information for Sketchucation Support menu command in SketchUp and copy/paste the output into your reply.

@mstewart Looks like you have yet to install FredoCorner

SketchUp Plugins | PluginStore | SketchUcation

SketchUp Plugin and Extension Store by SketchUcation provides free downloads of hundreds of SketchUp extensions and plugins

(sketchucation.com)

Or you can install it directly in SketchUp using our own ExtensionStore

Rich,

MANY, MANY thanks to you! I uninstalled both LibFredo6 and FredoCorner, then reinstalled both of them through the plugin store. Now everything is loaded and presumably functional. This is a great community. High fives to you Rich!

@mstewart No problems. It can be confusing to get it all setup correctly if your new to it.

I've asked for them to repair SketchUp install using Run as Admin

But if you have further info that'd be great as I have 2 more similar issues in support inbox around Curviloft

I did it!!!!!

Delete the Problematic File (Force Reset Fredo6 Defaults) .. i just change de extension.....
Close SketchUp.
Delete LibFredo6_all_defaults.dat (SketchUp will recreate it).
Restart SketchUp.

The LibFredo6_all_defaults.dat can have incorrect permissions if SketchUp was installed incorrectly [i.e. not using 'Run as administrator']
Although running it again 'as administrator' and choosing 'Repair' should fix most permission issues, some remain - especially with extensions saved files/folders.
Deleting the the LibFredo6_all_defaults.dat while SketchUp is closed should work as SketchUp will recreate it with the correct permissions when it next runs.
