Could not able to remove .rbs file even it was deleted

Developers Ruby API

Hi,

I am new in develop rube extension for sketchup.
I am using Sketchup pro 2015 in Windows 10, I follow the steps in
http://www.sketchup.com/intl/en/developer/docs/tutorial_helloworld

for the hello world example. my sketcup don’t have plugin folder, it only have
ShippedExtensions folder and I can see there are a lot of .rb files there. So I create the hello.rb text file and save it there. It run after restart sketchup. However, even after I delete that hello.rb file in that folder and restart sketchup, the Hello World pop up still show up. Then show another pop up of “Error Loading File hello.rbs
Failed to read RBS file.”

Rebot the machine and sketchup, it is still there.

So my question is how to totally remove that .rb file from sketchup?

Thanks a lot!

Do not put any files in the “%ProgramFiles%/SketchUp 2015/ShippedExtensions” folder.

That folder is for the Trimble supplied extensions only. (They get copied to the User “Plugins” folder, when SketchUp starts up, if needed.)

So SketchUp copied your “hello.rb” to your user “Plugins” folder.

Iniside SketchUp, open the Ruby Console, and type:

UI.openURL Sketchup.find_support_file("Plugins")

Windows Explorer should open to the User “Plugins” folder.

http://www.sketchup.com/intl/en/developer/docs/tutorial_helloworld says:

PC folks: Use Windows Explorer to locate your Plugins folder. It should be something like…

C:\Users\<your_windows_user_name>\AppData\Roaming\SketchUp\SketchUp [n]\SketchUp\Plugins
