Unexpected file format occurs whenever I open a sketchup file

unexpected file formate occur when ever i open my sketchup file

Where have you been saving the file while working on it?

in my drive where i save my all working

thisis my file link

Your file opens up in Pro 2024 for me. It is quite a mess. You really need to learn about managing entourage from the 3dWarehouse.
First of all I turned off length snapping which can lead to errors during modelling.
Then I untagged some geometry (edges and faces) Probably from a bad warehouse model.
After that I purged which cut the file almost in half!
At last I used Cleanup3 which took another 10 MB off.
Lessons to learn:

  • Don’t use overly detailed models from the warehouse…
  • Learn how to purge!
  • Do not change the active tag, leave it on untagged at all times!

See if you can open this file:

It was taking too long to clean up the file, and I just had too sleep after a long working day, thankfully you were assisted by another member, you should as he said, learn the basics of sketchup modeling first, you have a lot of models downloaded from the 3D warehouse, most of those models are very heavy cause they have a lot of details that is not even noticeable on the plans or renders, the project is small for the weight. I recommend you to download the models into a new file, clean it up using clean up 3 and default layer geometry and get rid of tags in the model, if you use Vray you can use the export proxy tool to make them lighter and more manageable for your gpu, and last but not least also use the material resizer extension to reduce the resolution of the materials, you have flat color at 4K, it makes no sense to have that.
