    Google Sketchup - enforced download?

    Hi all

    I have already downloaded the free version of G sketchup and it is insisting I download again as the the free version I have has now expired.

    Any suggestions anyone? I was perfectly happy with what I had !!

    Andy

    NB I had just saved my first drawing ... is this a coincidence ???

    Gerry,

    5.0.245.

    Am I missing out on additional functionality?

    Normally software prompts for updates. It seems strange that I am being told that the Free version I have installed has expired and that I have to download another 19MB installation file.

    Any thoughts?

    Andy

    Mine still says beta, so that's probably why they do have it expire. 19MB only takes me about 10 seconds.

    same happened to me about a month ago. maybe they should have a patch instead of making us download it again. it has taken me 45mins to download the program again (damn dial-up! thank heavens for beer and tv)
