      I'm getting the following error messages when Sketchup first loads:

      When I downloaded the plugins I unzipped each file, did a select all and moved the contents to the plugins folder.

      The effected directories are: FREDOSCALE_Dir_20, LIBFREDO6_Dir_34, ROUNDCORNER_Dir_21,and TOS_Dir_16. I went through each error message, got the directory and file name. I checked each directory and all files are present. Is there any reason why I'm getting these error messages?

        It looks like all those plugins are Freedo's. He usually gives a file map in the SCF plugin sub for loading his plugins. My guess you did not select use sub folder info when you extracted the files. I think I would delete all and start again. In stead of doing all at once try one and make sure you get it correct first before doing the rest. I don't think Freedo watches this forum very often so you may want to post your question in the SCF plugin forum where he will see it

          I uninstalled the directories and scripts for each plugin, restarted Sketchup with no errors, then extracted LibFredo6 3.4c to keep the file directory structure intact, then reinstalled. Starting Sketchup shows the following errors, is there a bug using SketchUp v8 with LibFredo6 3.4:

            No, it works fine.
            Can you post a screenshot of your plugins folder so we can see how you extracted the files?
            These errors are nearly always due to incorrect file placement.

                hm... looks al right... maybe this is a Windows UAC thing. I've seen some reports where Windows places files in a compatibility folder instead of the actual folder you think you place it in.

                Notice in your first screenshot a button that says Compatibility Files - what do you see when you click that?

                  Nothing from LibFredo6 is in the directories listed above. I had SU v7.1 with LibFredo6 installed without getting the errors. The only difference is that I've just installed SU v8.0 then LibFredo6 in it's plugins folder and now experiencing the errors.

                    Is there any workaround to get this plugin to load?

                      DefParam is from Fredo...

                      I'm not sure how to handle the Compatibiliy Files thing - think there's some threads around about it.

                        After running a search on compatibility files I read one of the older threads, http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=323&t=17947&p=203864&hilit=Compatibility+files#p203864 that mentioned that the Smustard Organizer plugin caused errors similar to the ones I was having with LibFredo6 instead of the compatibility files system being the perpetrator. I tested this theory by changing the file extensions of Organizer.rb, SmustardOrganizerExcludeFolders.txt, and restarted SketchUp 3 times without an error message. It doesn't make sense that all the other plugins loaded without a problem. The last plugin I installed, LibFredo6 caused error messages, but first plugin installed, Organizer caused the problem.

                        Another thing that doesn't make sense is the compatibility files system. When I deleted the organizerEdit.log from the virtualstore directory, the compatibility files button on the explorer window dissappered, but I didn't delete the defparms folder (contained no files) and the twilight folder (only contained the twilight license). Why would the compatbility files button dissapear even though not all of the content has been deleted?
