      Have you installed any new Plugins lately?
      Try disabling them temporarily and see if that helps.
      Do you get any error messages in the Ruby Console before the 'crash'?
      If you do find the culprit let use know asap.
      ๐Ÿ˜•
      Have you tried repair/reinstall Sketchup and/or reinstalling the Extrusion tools again...
      This is weird ๐Ÿ˜•

        this toolset is a bit complicated for usage for a novice like me. I'm getting some unexpected results. Are there any video tutorials ๐Ÿ˜’

        You might find it helpful to learn the basic tool set first. And then search through the forum because there's lots of information on using TIG's Extrude Tools. He did instructions for all of the tools in individual threads.

          I'm unable to have the first button, don't know why.

          This has been a problem since a long time. I have got now windows 7 ultimate but the problem is still there. I did a fresh download of this set, overwrote the old extrude tools files but the problem is still there. ๐Ÿ˜•

            There are only ever 11 buttons - there are only 11 extrudeEdgesBy...rb files!!!
            I suspect that you have put one of the files into two auto-loading locations or have two copies with slightly different names in Plugins - so something is loading twice but the 1st time its icon files are not found - SO... what is the first button ? See its Tooltip etc or look in the Plugins>ExtrusionTools... for a submenu duplicate.
            Temporarily move all of the 11 'good' extrudeEdgesBy...rb files into another folder and restart SUp [leave the #extrusionToolbar.rb in placeso the toolbar MIGHT get made]. Then you can track down the culprit - perhaps something like 2x extrudeEdgesByEdges.rb ??
            Let us know when you've fixed it.

                  Have you got two brain-cells to rub together ๐Ÿ˜’

                  You have got two files with similar names loading, that then add the same tool twice.
                  So simply look through the contents of Plugins.
                  Find these two files and open/read them both with Notepad.exe
                  The one called "extrudeEdgesByEdges.rb" is the one to keep - it's from the zipped set [it says 'Version 3.0' in its notes]
                  The other one that's maybe 'older' and/or just has 'another similar name' needs removing.
                  There are several files in Plugins with similar names but only two of the 11 [in your case 12!] are the ones you need to worry on...

                  I can't do this for you - you must help yourself here - be resilient...

                                          I've just installed the collection but it isn't working properly. The toolbar doesn't appear and the EbyEdges tool doesn't work. I haven't tried the others out yet. Is this just me? I've installed it by putting the .rb files in the main plugins folder and the tigtools folder in there as well. Is that right?

                                            This is what should be in your Plugins folderCapture.PNG
                                            The TIGtools folder contains lots of support files too.
                                            Are you sure all of the files are properly inside Plugins ?
                                            No 'Compatibility Files' issues ??
                                            The one starting with # is needed to make the toolbar etc.
                                            You must activate the toolbar from View > Toolbars the first time it's loaded...
