I got it working by changing the plist file
I looked some more, and it seems that SketchUp's own plist files affect what CFBundleDocumentTypes are initially registered for skp files. At some point they went from just com.sketchup to com.sketchup.skp, which necessitates the change you made in my plist.

Heavy models do take super long to save, is that due to jpg creation?
Heavy models can take a long time to save even without the jpg generation, but yes it will slow the save even more. You could get a sense of the impact by exporting the model as a 800x600 2D jpeg image, which is essentially what the plugin does.

Recent versions of OS X cache both plists and the qlmanage settings. You often need to force them to refresh their caches to get things to "stick", especially if an affected app is open at the time. To force refresh of the preferences cache you can either log off and back on, reboot, or issue "killall cfprefsd" in the Terminal. To force refresh of the quick looks, do "qlmanage -r".

Thanks so much, the trick: "regsvr32 thumbsup.dll" worked for my Windows 10. 12-22-2022

Can anyone clarify whether there's a legitimate way to re-enable skp file preview, and if so, how can users ensure they're not engaging in any illegal activity when attempting to do so?
Additionally, has the author been contacted regarding version 2.17 and its relationship to the current version 2.2.4?
