Daz Studio wouldn't open, won't reinstall.

I have Studio 4.25 and have not had any issues with it until today. This morning I was repeatedly unable to open it from install manager. I then tried to open it from the icon on the desktop. Same issue. So I uninstalled from within manager restarted manager, found it in ready to download. Downloaded it. It appeared in Installed but not as a program. There is no way to open it and it shows no files installed. Anyone else deal with this??

    What is its installed size given as? Does it appear in Task Manager (or the Mac equivalent) after you try to launch it with the desktop/start menu option?

    Thank you for responding! It appears to be fixed but I don't know what happened. It displayed a weird size of -1 in installed under IM. I went into task manager and found studio under active but using no memory and terminated it. I then restarted IM and it appeared to actually download something. I just opened it and it appears to be up and ready. No idea what happened or how.  Hope its fixed. Also every time I restarted IM it went back to ready to download.

    I suspected it was going to have a -1 size, that happens occasionally and can take a little gentle thumping to get it unstuck so that it will reinstall the application properly.

    A gentle thumping? Oh, you mean percussive maintenance.

    Yes, but more Evelyn Glennie than Lars Ulrich
