Hello
Is there a way to edit my Bundles in SketchUcation Tools 2.6? Or delete them and start from scratch? I'm needing to rebuild my system and would like to start fresh with a reinstall of SU 2014 and get rid of any old plugins or extensions.
Thanks for the great tool but just need a little more info on management.
Thanks
Richard Palmer

There may be dat files in
%LOCALAPPDATA%/Temp/SCF
and
%LOCALAPPDATA%/SCF

Thanks Dan. I found that as I add plug ins to my fresh install of SU that a new Bundle appears in ST 2.6. I'll look for the .dat files you mentioned as well.

ST creates a bundle per device per SU version.
We've something in testing that will negate the need for bundles going forward

cannot install plugins under Windows 8
... in SU Status bar it says "Sketchucation Archive Installer..." but in the end, no plugin installed.
And in Ruby Console I get this:Error; #<Errno;;EACCES; Permission denied - C;/Program Files (x86)/Google/Google SketchUp 8/Plugins/t999> (eval);935;in `delete' (eval);935;in `installable?' (eval);226;in `getplugins?' (eval);1018;in `rbzInstaller' (eval);1249;in `rbzDirect' (eval);1125;in `loadHandler' (eval);466;in `loadFromURL' (eval);1173;in `new' (eval);935;in `call' (eval);935
How can I fix that?

Looks like a 'permissions' issue.
Covered thousands of times before !
There's even a help page in Tuts...
But here's a précis...To 'install', then 'manage' your plugins you need to be have the ability to read/write/overwrite files in the default
Plugins
folder.
With "Admin-powers" [first off, give yourself them in the Users Control Panel if not].
Find thePlugins
folder withinC:/Program Files (x86)/Google/Google SketchUp 8/
Select thePlugins
folder's icon, right-click > Context-menu > Properties > Security > Edit ensure everyone listed has FULL permission to read/write ticked > Apply/OK.
Check that these newly reset FULL permissions have filtered down also apply to its files, subfolders, their contents etc.Also change SketchUp to always run as an admin...
To do this...
In the same SketchUp folder findSketchUp.exe
, select its icon, right-click > Context-menu > Properties > Compatibility > 'Privilege Level' pane - tick the box 'Run this program as an administrator' > Apply/OK.In v2014 this permission issue is resolved since each User gets their own Plugins folder with full permissions preset.

This plugin stopped working for me, everytime i launch it i get this message
"This plugin is no longer support, please upgrade by clicking the button below. After the upgrade you will need to restart sketchup."
So i click the upgrade button and after the upgrade is complete i restart sketchup but the same message pops up again, now i am using sketchup version 8 from the good old google days so could this be the problem and if so is there an older version of sketchucation store plugin i can install.
Upgrading sketchup isn't an option for me at the moment, i need to stay on version 8
Thanks in advance if someone helps me out with this

Have you tried downloading the latest version from the PluginStore [v2.6.1] ?
You can install its RBZ from v8's Preferences > Extensions > Install... button...
Restart SketchUp to see the changes.You must have a version of v8 [>=v8M2] that allows this, or how else have you used it before ?
BUT if you don't ! then change the .RBZ file suffix to .ZIP, then extract its contents, keeping the files inside their subfolders where appropriate, and install everything manually into the v8 Plugins subfolder, overwriting existing files... -
I will try the .ZIP file technic, thanks TIG
