If you created any custom components collections or custom templates, you’ll need to copy them as well, either from your custom folder locations (I put mine in my Documents path,) or from the appropriate sub-folder of the application program folder given above. If 32-bit (on 64-bit Windows) then: "%ProgramFiles(x86)%/SketchUp/SketchUp 2016/" If 64-bit (on 64-bit Windows) or 32-bit (on 32-bit Windows) then: "%ProgramFiles%/SketchUp/SketchUp 2016/" SketchUp, templates and components are still kept in one of the %ProgramFiles% paths. (You can omit the “ cookiejar.xml” and “ session.dat” files in the “SketchUp” sub-folder.) You’ll likely wish to just save and restore all the sub-folders of: "%AppData%/SketchUp/SketchUp 2016/" Ie "%AppData%/SketchUp/SketchUp 2016/LayOut" They are kept in XML files in the %AppData% folder. If you add any other version independent folders (like I do in my Documents path,) then you’ll need to copy them as well.Īlso there are many settings you may wish to copy. Likely they have been set up already in the user %AppData% path. Starting with SketchUp 2016, Registered Extension Developers can claim their software by signing it digitally, saying I made this, but in a secure coded format. LayOut also allows you to add multiple folder locations for templates, scrapbooks and pattern fills. SketchUp now has three different Extension policies you can select that affect what extensions can and cannot be loaded when SketchUp starts. If you saved any custom scraps, templates, or pattern fills in those sub-folders … you may wish to copy that entire folder tree to a backup drive, so it can be restored later. (But I agree, the UI interface for removing and then reapplying the license is the normal method.)Īlso in the “ Layout” sub-folder (of the above folder,) are scrapbooks, etc. then open SketchUp and see if it finds the license file. If the file you find is not already there, try copying the file to this location: c:ProgramDataSketchUpSketchUp 2016. The thing is SketchUp has hardly changed over the years god knows what we are paying for.Just FYI, the license files are kept at: "%ProgramData%/SketchUp/SketchUp 2016/" We offer several types of purchasing options for SketchUp for our Go, Pro, and Studio subscriptions when buying online. If you search for SketchUp.lic, and find a file that is bigger than a few bytes in size, that may be a copy of your license file. which you can't do with the SketchUp web-based.īut man a year doesn't last very long before I knew it my subscription had ended and I felt like I hardly used SketchUp Pro what a waste of money.
Enter your User Name, Serial Number, and License Key. When the Welcome page appears click Add Classic License. SketchUp only provides download links for supported versions. especially because I used to have two sketches ups open at the same time and I copied and pasted between the two to export components. Download and install the version of SketchUp you wish to authorize. I decided to go PRO and download the desktop version and it was so much better reminds me of the olden days.
Professional 2017 Full Version, Sketchup Pro 2016 64 Bit, SurfCAM 2018 R1. So SketchUp is intentionally restricting speeds.? or web-based is just no good Google SketchUp Pro 2018 License Key have many improvements as compared to older version. I get a message from Sketchup saying looks like you need to upgrade due to the model slowing everything down. I have 300mb internet speeds up to 900mb with a ping of 10ms. but it becomes laggy when you add models into your model. I don't even need pro most of the time but I pay for Sketchup Go. Then they went to subscription which was a cheaper option but we all knew the intention was to price increase. Back when you could buy the software and it was yours to use as much or as little as you wanted which was fine and affordable. I have used Sketchup for 17+ yrs for personal use and odd jobs. Hardly stealing from a company who are ripping people off.
