Uncontrolled purging of scatter models

SketchUp version : 2019
Skatter version: 1.4.13
OS :WIN 10 PRO
Description of the issue: I have an issue where Skatter objects are automatically purged erased or deleted with no reason. the error says:

skatter_medium_grass_01_large_proxy' has been erased from the model.

Are you able to reproduce the issue every time? YES, I add any element as proxy from the Skatter library it deletes it even before closing skatter dialog. :
Error in Ruby Console? (Window > Ruby Console) :

vray_2_upgrader(91):info: "Replacing #<Sketchup::Group:0x000001b2089c5980> with 1201"
