      Im new to this site.

      Once I download a plugin to my desktop - it appears to be saved as SU file.
      How do I get it into my SU 2017 windows?

      thanks,
      Billy

        Please help us by giving some more [useful] info...
        Where did you download the 'plugin' from ?
        What is it ?
        Let's assume it's one of the PluginStore's files...
        It should arrive onto your computer as an RBZ file.
        Then in v2017 you use the Window > Extension Manager dialog's 'Install Extension' red-button, find the RBZ and it's installed automatically for you.

        Extensions are a subset of Plugins... these can be enabled/disabled using the Extensions Manager...

        A few complex Extensions also need a helper Lib installing - it's explained in their usage notes.

        Although it's not always necessary, restarting SketchUp after installing an RBZ will ensure everything gets properly synced...

        Also note that not all Extensions/Plugins appear in the Extension menu, some are in Draw or Tool etc, also many have Toolbars...
        So read the usage notes so you understand how each tool works...

        TIG

          I see the installed,enabled extension in Extension Manager, but I can't find it on my menu. I can't activate it.

              It has been addressed elsewhere, it was Make all unique, and it is found in the context menu.

                if name of the plugin "Deep Make unique", is available in the context menu, and only when there are more than one components in the project.
