Guide: Work With SKP Format Files Safely

Here you will find out:

  • how to work with SKP Format Files
  • how DiskInternals can help you

Are you ready? Let's read!

Usually, SKP files are used to create plans for houses and buildings, however they can be used to create any professional 3D model.

This article focuses on the basic techniques for manipulating an SKP model on a Windows 10 computer.

So, to open the .SKP file, you can use any free 3D model viewer as long as it supports the SKP file format as input. For example, it could be the free pCon.planner software or the Sketchup web app (you can open the SKP file in a web browser).

SketchUp has provided a free desktop version of the software with some limitations for Windows computers for a while. Currently, SketchUp software releases are paid and require prior subscription. Users will then be able to download and use the SketchUp software on their computers.

Make Sure Your Projects are Safe

To get back and restore all saved information on your computer, including Sketchup file format, take a look at DiskInternals Uneraser. This professional-grade data recovery software combines speed, user-friendly intuitive interface, and high efficiency, proven by many years of experience (on the market since 2003). In addition, the utility can recover SKP file types even if they were not only on the hard drive, but also on SSD, flash drive, external hard drive, memory cards, IDE drive, SATA drive or SCSI drive, etc. The important point is that the system directory where the corruption of your data occurred should not be affected by you. Because any copying, pasting, creating or transferring files will overwrite the disk and permanently delete the data in the directory - in this case, your data will be lost forever.

So let's take a look at a simple guide to using DiskInternals Uneraser.

First download the demo version of DiskInternals Uneraser from the official website and run it. The Recovery Wizard will start its work automatically:

  • Select the location on the system drive or external drive where the files were located.
  • Select the disk scan mode: Reader, Uneraser or Full Recovery and click Next; wait a moment for the scanning process to complete.

After scanning, you should use the preview mode, it is available even in the trial version of DiskInternals Uneraser.

In this mode, you can see files that can be restored to their original form. Now all that remains is to purchase a license key for the program, which will allow you to save the recovered SKP files to any media.

With DiskInternals Uneraser, you no longer have to worry about unexpected system crashes and the possibility of losing essential files.
