          At last !!
          Thanks for the feedback. Sounds good to go ! I'll get something ready for Friday...
          Are these FileUtils messages in anyway associated with SketchUcation stuff ?
          Or is it something else entirely ??

            Sketchucation Tools 5.0.1. is broken on my system (Windows 11, Sketchup Make 2017). The Sketchucation menu only has the following entries:

            Screenshot 2025-10-03 021134.png

            Next: everytime I launch Sketchup, I get the following error messages

              OK, just a small update on the previous post. I noticed at the top of the error chain, that a specific extension would be missing (curviloft). It's an extension that I acquired quite a while ago, but it's not installed (certainly not at this moment, unsure whether it may have been installed on this machine in the past). I acquired that extension as part of a bundle. But, apparently, the simple fact that this extension is not installed, triggers the error with Sketchucation's new version. After manually adding the 'missing' extension, and relaunching Sketchup, the same error popped up, but this time about a different extension. Only after having installed ALL missing extensions of that bundle that was acquired quite long ago, Sketchup returned to a normal way of working when being launched. I nevertheless still find that this is a bug.

                Thanks, the oddity of finding the VERSION of a @fredo6 extension like 'Fredo6_Curviloft', that is not loaded, i.e. it's shown as unloaded in our Plugins Manager because it's been renamed .RB! , is that we cannot get it by reading the extensions loading Fredo6_Curviloft.RB! file itself as Fredo doesn't expose it in that file [unlike most other authors]; instead we have to read the associated Fredo6_Curviloft.plugin file and find the VERSION there. If that file is not found we should skip to 'no version found status' - BUT somehow our checking is tripping up. I'll check and ensure there's a robust trap for this...
                Please ensure that if you don't want it any more that you do not have any Fredo6_Curviloft files or subfolders in your Plugins folder - there must be something there to cause the error to arise...

                  An updated SketchUcation RBZ is being tested and will be published shortly - this should avoid this error when one of Fredo's [or TT's] extensions is only partially uninstalled and the VERSION is therefore unavailable...

                    I installed version 5.0 on my SketchUp 2025 and it gives an error when starting it. I also tried installing 5.0 on my SketchUp 2024 and it doesn't give me any problems there. Now, however, I can't continue with the activated licenses of my plugins like Fredo. What can I do?

                        Sorry but I don't understand English very well. What exactly should I do to send a copy to everyone, which button do I need to click, and what error should I enter? Also, is this a known issue and is there a solution or not? Otherwise, I'll just install the old version that works.

                          We have had a few reports of issues and many of these will be addressed in an update shortly.
                          However, we cannot be sure what your problem is without seeing the error messages.
                          On the dialog image which you posted there is a button in the bottom left-hand corner entitled
                          'Copia tutti gli errori' - 'Copy all errors'
                          If you click on that the error message is copied on to your Clipboard.
                          Then compose a post here, and Edit > Paste the Clipboard contents into it.

                          Abbiamo ricevuto alcune segnalazioni di problemi e molti di questi saranno risolti a breve in un aggiornamento.
                          Tuttavia, non possiamo essere certi di quale sia il tuo problema senza vedere i messaggi di errore.
                          Nell'immagine di dialogo che hai pubblicato, c'è un pulsante nell'angolo in basso a sinistra intitolato
                          'Copia tutti gli errori'.
                          Cliccandoci, il messaggio di errore viene copiato negli Appunti.
                          Quindi, scrivi un post qui e seleziona Modifica > Incolla il contenuto degli Appunti.

                            @TIG I actually made a serious mistake because I didn’t copy to the clipboard the error that appeared in SketchUp. However, the problem now is that if I try to reinstall SketchUcation, it gets reinstalled from SketchUp’s native Extension Manager, but I can’t activate it, and therefore I can’t reproduce the error. If there is another way to reinstall it, let me know; otherwise, I’ll wait for further updates and will try reinstalling the plugin once you’ve resolved the issue.! SketchUp_5rDaKikeTV.png

                              As I mentioned, if I try to reinstall the plugin, I close SketchUp and open it again, but when I go to the SketchUp Extensions panel, it still says it’s deactivated. I try turning it off and restarting it, but it remains deactivated.

                                To uninstall SketchUcation - close SketchUp.
                                Open your SketchUp's Plugins folder.
                                Find the file SketchUcation.rb and its subfolder SketchUcation.
                                Select them and delete them.
                                Open the PluginStore page and download the latest RBZ - currently it's v5.0.1 [but v5.0.2 will be released very soon].
                                Open SketchUp.
                                Use SketchUp's Extension Manager to install that RBZ.
                                If there's an error message copy it and paste it into a reply.
                                Otherwise, can you activate the SketchUcation extension if it's shown disabled ?
