Thank you again. As per your suggestion (as my Downloads Folder is empty), I downloaded the SU2019 Installer (to my Desktop), ran the Repair function as Administrator, then rebooted, arranged Tool Bars, inserted a simple model. I then saved as a template and opened another instance of SU. This did not remedy the problem. Shall I try uninstalling, then reinstalling SU as Administrator?

One other thing I neglected to mention is that the Tool Bars were staying put initially (several weeks), and that the "instability" occurred after many SU start-ups.

I might be showing my ignorance, but I can NOT find the downloaded installer. This is a single-user PC and I am the Administrator, but I doubt I used "Run as Administrator" when SU2019 was installed, unless it was specified in the procedure. Any tips on how to find the installer? Thanks.

I don't recall precisely how I installed SU2019. I will give the procedure you recommend a go. Thank you for the response and thank you for your suggestion. Will let you know how it goes.

I'm running SU 2019. Had all my Tool Bars set. This morning when I opened SketchUp the Tool Bars were scattered. Still docked, but all scrambled up. Found some info when I searched the forum, but didn't find anything quite like it. Does anyone know what's going on? Thanks[/size]

I thought maybe not, but didn't hurt to throw it in. Haven't done much of this stuff in six years, so a little rusty, as well as being not-too-knowledgeable in the nuts & bolts area. However, I've grown to absolutely rely on SU to aid in making my living and will probably be working on a model on my deathbed.

Thanks guys! I should have been clear that it was Plug-In and Extension toolbars I was talking about. I positioned everything where I wanted, saved as a new template, closed, then tried "Run as Administrator" from the desktop icon. That did the job. Thanks for that suggestion, Dave.

Downloaded 2016 trial and the extensions I like to use. Positioned the toolbars where I want them, but next time I boot up they're all over my workspace. SU8 (which I was using previously) had a "Restore Toolbars" in "View/Toolbars". Any way to keep them docked?

Thanks, guys. It's working. Probably didn't reboot when I thought I had. It's a little hard to explain why it comes in so handy for me without being in work mode. Has to do with an obsessive need to manage axes, and like any tool with which you grow intimately accustomed: don't want to let it go! The habit and routine is too engrained!

Finally moving up to SU2106 (from SU8!). I used "Move to Origin" (authored by Todd Burch and available at SMustard) quite a lot, and am wondering if a similar tool is available for 2016. Have been unable to find anything so far. Help is appreciated.
