In order to clear my very full MacBook Pro for files, I have mistakenly deleted some grashopper files. I have Rhino 7. Is there any solution to this that doesn’t involve deleting and reinstalling the whole program? Square, division, Circle, Expression, Boundary Surfaces, cull pattern, smaller than , all theese just show up as blanks when im opening a file. It didnt help to update to another version, havent had problems with Rhino yet, just grashopper. Attempted package restore, got this message: 404: No package found by the name of ‘Grasshopper’.

Failed to install the missing plug-in.

Not all plug-ins were found on the package server.

The missing plug-in(s) may be available at https://www.food4rhino.com. Dont really know what to do now.
Thankful for any advice on this.

Suggestion:

If you have a second computer with Rhino available. Then open the file you have on that computer. The screen with all the missing plugins will popup. Take a picture/printscreen from that.

Use this to update your missing plugins on your first computer. That should bring you very close to your original setup.
(do not ask me how I know :frowning:

Hej Anne Marte -

I’m not sure what that means since Rhino 7 isn’t updated all that often anymore, but anyway…

You could try the following:

  1. Exit Rhino
  2. Rename the ~/Library/Application Support/McNeel/Rhinoceros/7.0 folder to, e.g., include -backup after 7.0
  3. Install from a freshly downloaded DMG
  4. Start Rhino

Does that make a difference?
-wim

Hej Anne Marte -

The more interesting part of the path is clipped in that picture.
You can make that dialog wider to see the entire path, like this:

Can you post the complete path of both of those components?
