hey guys i did a bad move while trying to do a save. so basically i was making a component of a model and accidentally saved it as the model the component is for
so you’ve overwritten the ‘master’ model file?
yes i have
Has the model backup file been overwritten too?
Do you have a cloud backup?
I use Google Drive and can use the manage versions feature to open previous versions of a file…
no i havent backed it up ughhhhhhhh this is bad news
Normally there should be a backup file (previous version of the model) so if you have
model.skp
you shuld have
model.skb
Try to move this model.skb to other location and rename it to model.skp and open it…
If you don’t find the SKB file, look in this folder to see if the latest version of the file is there:
%LocalAppData%\SketchUp\SketchUp 2021\SketchUp\working\SKETCHUP\RecoveredFiles
You can copy and paste that text into the path of File Explorer to get to the right place.
