In fact the Viewer doesn’t even show up in the list of apps when setting default apps for file types. I did try installing it from the SU website but without any success as far as thumbnails go. I had to find the app by searching the Windows Store using Google as searching for ‘skp’ files within the Store itself doesn’t show the Viewer as available at all, even for the Rift. There is no option to install through the App Store to Windows without having that hardware connected/installed. How did this work exactly? The Windows App Store only appears to offer SketchUp Viewer for the Oculus Rift, at least in the UK it does. Typed in “sketchup” and found the “Sketchup Viewer” which I loaded. I thought, maybe I should reset the connection? I chose “Look for app in Microsoft store” just out of frustration. …I clicked on the icon (inside Default Apps screen), which brings up a short drop down menu. IT DID!ĭon’t know if this will work for others, but it fixed a many-years old issue for me. I clicked on the icon (inside Default Apps screen), which brings up a short drop down menu.
As I had found many times, the default app for that file extension showed the Sketchup icon. From there, I scrolled down to the listing for *.skp. scrolled down to a linky reading “default apps by file type”. UNTIL LAST NIGHT: Following some tip I found here (I think), I opened the Windows settings dialogue box, navigated to Apps / Default Apps. I tried a few of the fixes I found here and with Google searches, with no luck. Lately, no thumbnails under any circumstance. Other times, thumbnails would show WITHIN sketchup (for instance, opening a folder window within the program) though not if I opened a File Explorer window outside of Sketchup. I’ve been dealing with this problem for years - and sometimes a few of the files would show thumbnails, but not others.
