Sketchup 2021 pro - cannot change template file location

yairag · October 28, 2021, 8:18pm

I’ve installed Sketchup 2021 pro. Trying to change template file location under
Windows-> Preferences-> Files but only this option is gray
I’ve deleted the SharedPreferences.json file, Run Sketchup as Administrator but it does not help
Is there a way to change the path?
Thanks

As far as I know, it’s in a fixed location by design. There may be a hack to change it, but I don’t know of one, and it isn’t recommended.

As @john_mcclenahan indicated, that location is hard coded. You cannot edit the template location.

Save your template in your own folder. Then you simply open it. There’s no need to store your custom templates inside of SU or LO.
