I am running Sketchup 2018 Pro and wish to connect and download a plugin a have paid for in the Extension Warehouse. Unfortunately 2018 Pro no longer has access to the warehouse, so how do I obtain the rbz file?

Download it via a web browser and use the Install button within Sketchup.

With SketchUp 2018 you **CANNOT**. You must update to a supported SketchUp version in order to install paid extensions via the Extension Warehouse. Their RBZ archives are **not** available standalone. If they are also available at SketchUcation, then you’ll need to buy it there and get a refund from Trimble’s EW.

No. Eneroth’s Align Face is only hosted on the Extension Warehouse. I have contacted her but no reply as yet.

I can’t find the thread where someone using skp 2021 had the same issue, I don’t know if he got a solution.
