Could you also leave the Ruby console open to catch error messages.

@Rich-O-Brien Yeah, first thing when I realised it doesn't work.
-
@Dave-R Doesn't matter, it won't work on any, even the simplest of cubes.

fixing SketchUp in run as administrator, double clicking.
In case of confusion...
Do NOT change the SketchUp exe file's Properties > Compatibility, to 'always run as administrator' - because although this can solve some incorrect installation issues, it creates new problems - like breaking drag-n-drop.To recap the correct way to install OR repair SketchUp...
Close SketchUp.
Login to Windows as your normal user-account.
Find the SketchUp installer exe file - usually in your Downloads folder [or download a fresh copy].
Select that installer's exe file's icon, right-click > context-menu > 'Run as administrator'
When prompted choose 'Repair' [as in your case].
Restart SketchUp.
This will properly reset the folder and file permissions needed to save/reuse settings, preferences, and so on.
Never install a complex app by double-clicking its installer's icon to 'Run' it - even if your user-account has admin powers it is NOT the same thing. The results can be varied - from nothing bad to all of your permissions messed up and weird issues popping up unexpectedly... -
@TIG That's exactly what I did since I found this (maybe yours) answer somewhere else. I didn't change any compatibility, just repaired.

@fredo6
Ok! I tried somethings with the plugin during this console writing. Pressed different options. -
@TIG Ah and by double clicking I meant there was someone that could run Fredos plugins only by double clicking its icons, and I tried that too in case my general windows setup was having a weird reaction. I didn't mean that i double click where I'm not supposed to.
Actually this is my first time here since 2013 because I excel at finding solutions online, even very deep, or somehom working them myself. But this time I just give up

It works so it might be how you are expecting it to work.
Maybe shared a simple model where it is failing for you.
