SU 2018 - Undocked toolbars upon load - window focus bug

Forget all of that.
Use the context-menu to “Run as administrator”
This will do everything that is needed.

Too many at Trimble/SketchUp are blinkered MAC users, and thereby they fail to understand the [simple] basis of PC installations, and regurgitate this out of date advice…

Do NOT double-click the installer file - use right-click and “Run as administrator”…
It is NOT the same as double-clicking when you have admin powers.
It is NOT the same as you being the administrator and double-clicking.
It is not just applicable to SketchUp - it applies to any complex app you might install on your PC !

If you don’t believe me try these other sages etc…
