Sketchup Freezing 2

[d0-agree]

I have been having some issues with my Sketchup. I have two scenarios where SketchUp simply freezes. Doesn’t always crash but has at times.

We all run 2021. It’s a problem with all of my models. Specifically the material edit issue

So it’s not a problem with the models. Is there still a window opening off screen?

Still have the material editor issue

Probably when you click the create material icon.

Everything is good now! Thanks Box and Dave!
