LibFredo6 Installation Error.
-
I am finally getting back to cleaning up my 2015 Sketchup install on Windows 10 so I can actually use all the plugins that I have in the past. Yeah I am a little behind, Kids...
I installed many plugins from the sketchucation toolbar, extension warehouse, etc. with success. I have installed the required LibFredo6 supplement, I think 6.8. It seems to be working fine with all the Fredo6 plugins, except Tool on Surface. I cannot get that one to install and it causes the following error.
Error Loading File Fredo6_!LibFredo6.rb Error; #<ArgumentError; invalid byte sequence in UTF-8> C;/Users/user/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2015/SketchUp/Plugins/Fredo6_!LibFredo6/Lib6Core.rb;716;in `match' C;/Users/user/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2015/SketchUp/Plugins/Fredo6_!LibFredo6/Lib6Core.rb;716;in `block (2 levels) in load_from_config' C;/Users/user/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2015/SketchUp/Plugins/Fredo6_!LibFredo6/Lib6Core.rb;715;in `each' C;/Users/user/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2015/SketchUp/Plugins/Fredo6_!LibFredo6/Lib6Core.rb;715;in `block in load_from_config' C;/Users/user/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2015/SketchUp/Plugins/Fredo6_!LibFredo6/Lib6Core.rb;713;in `foreach' C;/Users/user/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2015/SketchUp/Plugins/Fredo6_!LibFredo6/Lib6Core.rb;713;in `load_from_config' C;/Users/user/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2015/SketchUp/Plugins/Fredo6_!LibFredo6/Lib6Core.rb;1099;in `block in load_all_plugins' C;/Users/user/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2015/SketchUp/Plugins/Fredo6_!LibFredo6/Lib6Core.rb;1099;in `each' C;/Users/user/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2015/SketchUp/Plugins/Fredo6_!LibFredo6/Lib6Core.rb;1099;in `load_all_plugins' C;/Users/user/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2015/SketchUp/Plugins/Fredo6_!LibFredo6/Lib6Core.rb;786;in `load_from_config' C;/Users/user/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2015/SketchUp/Plugins/Fredo6_!LibFredo6.rb;188;in `startup' C;/Users/user/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2015/SketchUp/Plugins/Fredo6_!LibFredo6.rb;338;in `<module;LibFredo6>' C;/Users/user/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2015/SketchUp/Plugins/Fredo6_!LibFredo6.rb;34;in `<top (required)>'I have tried removing all the Fredo6 items in the identified location and reinstalled with the same results. Would someone point me towards a fix. I am at a loss.
Thank you in advance.
