one more thing....thank you all for your help thus far...

hi DukeJazz and Tig..I have downloaded and installed an antivirus an nothing was found.....but some inconstancy in the register which is what i will try to fix next...

Hi All,

I rolled back all 19 patches. problem is still there.

Hi TIG, the 9/10/2013 windows automatically updated itself with 19 patches. I think rolling back, knowing windows, it is not an option. I would have done for 1 or 2 patches but not for all these ones...i have also reinstall it from scratch and no luck.

Hi Tig,

I will try the rollback windows tonight. And yes i did try to repair it but nothing happened...

hi "Box" thank you for the reply. the reason i haven't don it is because cannot be that i'm the only user in the world with this problem. However your suggestion is very welcomed and I will try it tonight. But..before that, anything else i could try ?

Thank you for having put time in answering me.

Hi Guys,

I do understand this is not a support forum....but any help is highly appreciated...unfortunately i cannot longer use the software as i cannot save my work..

Please, please, please...help

Thank you in advance

Hi Tig, no luck.....

Hi,

I have tried to run as administrator and no luck. I have checked for the permission and no problem there. I also check for compatibility mode and no improvements...

Hi Tig,

Thank you..no luck...i even tried to run with the compatibility mode but no luck...

Good morning. thank yo for writing back. unfortunately no matter where you try to save you get the same problem. desktop, different hard disk etc...

Hi All,

Very new to this forum...i have been using sketchup for a while but never had a problem like this....since few days i am not able to save files and it causes sketchup 2013 to crash. tried to save the file in different format but nothing. the only plugin i have installed is the STL one.

I suspect a window 7 automatic update but not sure...

Any suggestions please? I'm using window 7 and as i mentioned i have been using this software on the same computer for a while...

Cheers,

lmcdima.
