I can't seem to access the Sketchup 3D warehouse from Pro

I will explain the PrivatePreferences.json fix, in case anyone needs it.

That file is in this folder:

%LocalAppData%\SketchUp\SketchUp 2024\SketchUp\

It can be edited with Notepad. To fix a window that can’t be found (3D Warehouse in this case), open SketchUp and show then resize the welcome screen and extension warehouse. Close SketchUp, then edit that json file.

There will be an entry for the welcome screen, that looks like this:

"WebCommonDialog_BlendtecWelcomeDialog": {
            "Height": 610,
            "Left": 360,
            "Top": 61,
            "Width": 909
        },

and one for Extension Warehouse, like this:

 "WebCommonDialog_ExtensionStore": {
            "Height": 607,
            "Left": 305,
            "Top": 77,
            "Width": 891
        },

The one for 3D Warehouse should look like this:

"WebCommonDialog_Warehouse": {
            "Height": 613,
            "Left": 222,
            "Top": 80,
            "Width": 883
        },

If any of the three can’t be seen, the four values may be incorrect. For the one at 3D Bascamp the two missing dialogs had “Left” values that were -1500.

You can fix the ones that are missing by copying and pasting the four lines from one that you can see. Do a save of that file, then reopen SketchUp, and the missing window should be in the same place as the window you copied the data from.
