Instead of save, SU asking for "Save AS",

[iamraj]

Hi,

New to Sketchup.

1. I need help as whenever i try to save any of my SU file, the "save AS" dialogue box appears and then 2nd diaologue box appears which says "File not found, Check the file name and try again".
   

Simultaneously
2) i am having similar un-resolved issue to this (https://forums.sketchup.com/t/cfileexception-2-when-trying-to-save-in-sketchup/1457)when i open my previous file and try to save them.

What system variable kind of setting i need to check?

Doesn't sound to me like a SketchUp setting issue. Does this happen repeatedly? Moving a file to a different directory might cause this, but that would only be once....

This sounds to me as if you've not installed SketchUp correctly. Try repairing the installation by finding the installer exe file, right clicking on it and selecting Run as administrator. Then choose the Repair option. Of course before doing this you need to quit SketchUp so it isn't running on your machine.

Yes! it is happening repeatedly, not a single file i could save after reformatting and installing SU again.

Actually my window was unaccessible so i forced to format it and reinstalled SU (as an admin) then after realizing the issue i reinstalled SU again but the problem still persist. Before this formatting, SU was working well withouot any issue.

i reinstalled it 3rd & 4th time by deleting all the files from C drive but no luck

i got formatted the machine's C drive again, and re-installed it, the problem still persist.
i installed earlier version as well, but result is the same.

Update: It got corrected by itself, I don't know how; might be Windows 10 update.
Thanks for your support
