          Could you advise on your version of Setchup 2016.

          The good one should be 16.1.1449 (64 bits).

          Thanks

          Fredo

          SketchUp Version 16.0.19912 64-bit

          That may be the reason. You run Sketchup release M0, which may have a problem with rbe files.
          So I suggest you upgrade to the latest version of SU2016 M1.

          Fredo

          So I spent a decent number of hours this weekend doing the upgrade to v.1449. Doing uninstall using the Installer to uninstall my previous version, uninstalled all traces of any SU directory or plug-ins and ran a registry clean to remove all known traces of SU. Restarted system and did a fresh install as Admin, started SU, entered my serial info and downloaded Fredo6 v8.1 and Animator, installed using Windows>Preferences. Upon start of SU I received this;

          Error Loading File C:/Users/mgfranz/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2016/SketchUp/Plugins/Fredo6_!LibFredo6/top_LibFredo6.rbe
          Failed to read RBE/RBS file.

          C:/Users/mgfranz/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2016/SketchUp/Plugins/Fredo6_Animator.rb:26:in `<top (required)>'

          I even tried starting SU as Admin, same error.

          So I went back and uninstalled SU using the installer, cleaned out all directories again, and reinstalled as User, same plug-ins, same error on start. I'm quite confused as to where to go next.

            Despite all of your text you have never clearly said how you actually installed SketchUp...

            Note:
            Do not set the installed SketchUp.exe to always run as administrator.
            Do not run SketchUp.exe as administrator.

            Important:
            SketchUp always needs to be correctly installed.
            The only proper way to do this is as follows...
            If it's already installed close SketchUp.
            Find its installer exe file - probably in your Downloads folder ?
            Select it, right-click > context-menu > "Run as administrator"
            If it's already installed choose "Repair" when prompted.
            Otherwise choose to "Install"...
            This should set permissions etc properly.
            Restart SketchUp and test...

            If the problem persists try Uninstalling SketchUp, and deleting the related folders in:
            *C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\SketchUp\SketchUp 2018\SketchUp*
            If you have any 'custom files' within subfolders like Materials, Components, Styles etc, then you might want to save them elsewhere, before doing the folder deletion.
            You can move them back after doing the Install properly...

              No, I did, "Restarted system and did a fresh install as Admin,". I also said that I DID delete all related folders in AppData. I have done the install, uninstall, repair so many times I have it memorized.

              And like I said previously, I can't run 2018 on this system due to the problem that started with 2017 regarding the lack of support for the Intel Graphics drivers, (which I do not understand), so 2016 is what it is, unless I want to buy a new laptop.

                Unfortunately your phraseology, "...[did] a fresh install as Admin...", is NOT entirely clear.
                If you mean that you did it in the way that I outlined, using "Run as administrator", then please make it clear.
                Installing it as a user who happens to be an 'admin', or even whilst logged-in as the administrator account, is not the same.
                At the moment your text is not unambiguous...

                  Yes, I did "Run as Administrator" for fresh install.

                    I know Fredo has an urgent call out to the SketchUp guys, about this very problem, which seems to be affecting just a few users, and where a proper installation etc fails to resolve these issues...

                      I got an answer from thomthom recommending to upgrade to the latest version of SU2016.

                        I'm already running SketchUpPro-2016-1-1449-80430-en-x64.exe, any other ideas?

                          Don't know why, but this version just won't work, same error encountered by @mgfranz =\ Only difference is that I'm using SU2017.
                          I had to uninstall and reinstall an older version (8.0c, which is the only one not too old I could find).
                          Would anybody provide a link with the 8.1c ~ 8.1f versions so I can run a few tests?

                          Thx!

                            Have you installed or repaired your SketchUp by selecting the installer exe file's icon, and
                            right-click > Run as administrator ?

                              Yes, I uninstalled and deleted every folder from SU2017, then reinstalled as admin (which I know I already did in the first time), but the problem persisted. So far, the only solution I found was using the 8.0c and pray the next release works for me

                                      Well, I believe I have some insight into the problems I have been having with loading .rbe files. Unfortunately my hard drive boot sector failed horribly, so I was forced to replace the disk in my laptop. With a fresh install of Windows 10 including all updates, I installed nothing to the system except SU 2016 as Administrator. I downloaded the latest version of Fredo6, Animator, RoundCorner and installed them using Windows>Preferences, restarted SU and all plug-ins loaded perfectly. So there was something seriously wrong with my system somewhere. In the process of reinstalling all necessary programs and will be restarting SU after each install to verify that nothing screws up SU.

                                          Hello and thank you for your work.

                                          recently, no more of your plugin works. the tools appear but have no effect.
                                          I updated, uninstalled and reinstalled libfredo6, but it still does not work.
                                          I downloaded other plugin not coming from you and they work perfectly.
                                          I tested on SU 2016 and 2017.
                                          if anyone has a solution I am interested.

                                          thank you

                                            Could you open the Ruby console and see if there are error messages when you launch a plugin.
