      Hi everyone!

      I'm using Sketchup Pro 2021, and I noticed that the file being opened from windows explorer, either by double clicking or RMB menu\open with... is seriously slow as compared with opening from inside the Sketchup program's menu \File\open...

      The files I'm referring to are located in server and the time difference for the response alone (that mouse icon processing) is about 3-4 minutes. This lag is really not normal, especially that most of the files are accessed via Windows explorer (double clicking) and not really from Sketchup program.

      I hope this can be fixed.

      Thanks!

        When you open the file from File Explorer you need to wait for SketchUp to ping the license server and then load extensions before even starting to open the .skp file. With File>Open in SketchUp, the license checking and extension loading has already been done so you don't need to wait for that. So that difference is going to account for part of the time delay.

        What if the file is located on your local drive? Does it still take the same amount of time to open?

        At this point in time you can pretty much expect there will be no further changes in SketchUp 2021.
