I’ve had to solve this a couple of times, one was where even the admin user couldn’t get the installer to work. Two easy solutions are to sign in as admin and install SketchUp, but don’t run it. Have the user sign in and open SketchUp.
The other is to install SketchUp onto your machine, don’t run it, distribute a zip file of the SketchUp 2020 folder inside Applications, so that it expands into the user’s Mac Applications folder. Have the user open SketchUp.
That should work, so long as all your installer does is to unpack the SketchUp 2020 folder into Applications. A lot of support files are generated if they are missing at the time SketchUp is first launched.
