OpenStudio Extension/Plugin Not Working on Sketchup2021

Hi everyone, I am experiencing problems with enabling the OpenStudio extension for SketchUp.

I am currently using the SketchUpPro 2021 30-day trial and have downloaded the OpenStudio extension. When I attempt to enable it on Extension Manager, a window pops up asking for the "Path to Open Studio Root Directory". When I paste the directory into the textbox in the window, an alert pops up saying: File 'C:/Program Files/OpenStudio/Ruby/openstudio_modeleditor.rb' does not exist. I deleted both apps and downloaded the most recent version of OpenStudio (3.2.1) and the SketchUp Plugin v.1.2.0 as per the compatibility matrix in https://github.com/NREL/OpenStudio/wiki/OpenStudio-SDK-Version-Compatibility-Matrix, but it still doesn't work.

I would really appreciate your assistance on this issue.

Many thanks!
