My less equipped PC handles Sketchup way better than my Mac. I’m working on a relatively large Sketchup file which my Mac can’t handle. Sketchup freezes every time I’m trying to open the file.

Awesome!! Thanks a lot! Regards, Hans

If you have a Pro subscription already you can install 2020, the subscription covers both. If you have a 2019 classic license, and you are under support, it will have been upgraded to a 2020 license.
