        Hi Marco,

        Some questions: What OS do you have (beside Vista): 32 or 64 bit?
        What is the folder you put the plugins? (could you make a screenshot of the folder, too)?
        What plugins did you install?
        Do you have admin rights on your computer?

        Gai...

          Many scripts come packaged in a zip file with extra 'support files' in a subfolder.
          Extract these exactly as they are in the zip file, and then move them into the Plugins folder with any files in their subfolders etc as might be appropriate.
          Some tools require extra 'Lib' files - if so then you are told on the download page itself to download them separately from another thread.
          Depending on your folder settings you might find that it's a 'compatibility files' issue and Vista has moved the files into a side-folder, and they need moving properly into Plugins.
          If that's not the case then please read the new scripts' instructions - not all of their tools have entries in the 'Plugins' menu - some appear in 'Tools', 'Draw' etc. or have a Toolbar [activated from Menu > View > Toolbars] or only work off the right-click context-menu, a few require you to type commands into the Ruby Console. Some tools also need to be activated as they are 'Extensions' - Menu > Windows > Preferences > Extensions = check it the list.
          Also do you get any error messages as Sketchup starts ?
