      Hi

      The problem is with Skelion plugin not starting when lunching Sketchup, I get the following message each time when I lunch sketchup:

      And when I press OK, I get:

      http://s11.postimg.org/dt8dny64z/BUG2.png

      I've tried changing the Sketchup folder Attributes by unchecking "Read-Only" but it's no use!

      Any help is much appreciated!

      Cheers!

        Unchecking "Read Only" for the SketchUp doesn't do anything to change permissions. From the first screenshot it appears that you haven't established sufficient permissions for the Plugins folder. Edit those to all full permissions under your log in and see what you get. With just the slightest amount of looking, you'll find that the very first thread in the Plugins forum, here gives you the info you need to set the permissions.
