The Connect install manager

Some time ago there was a separate install manager with a different interface. Is that still available? Where?
Also, I have items/assets, that seem to need to be installed, but if I run them it installs them in the C:\Users\***\Documents\DAZ 3D\Studio\My Daz Connect Library\data\cloud\ folder.
How do I install my assets without puting them in the "Connect Library" as my understanding is some files tend to not perform as intended? See image attached.
I am also getting an error message: "Duplicate Formulas Found". What to I do about this?
I have recently uninstalled all my assets, and reinstalled them via the "Install Manager" but this has not fixed the problem.
Thanks.

If by "separate install manager with different interface" you mean Daz Central, AFAIK it isn't available anymore.
Content installed with Connect (ie directly from DS) will always be installed in the "Daz Connect content directory" setup in DS preferences. You can change that directory in preferences if needed.
If you have installed a product via Connect and via DIM then DS will use the Connect version. If you want it to use the version DIM installed you need to uninstall the Connect version.
Thank you for that information. How do I identify and uninstall those items I have an install of in both places?
Does this have any impact on this?
I am also getting an error message: "Duplicate Formulas Found"...
I can't seem to figure that part out.
Thanks.
Are the assets showing as grey only to be installed by Connect?
I have looked and even tho I find a DAZ.zip file for some of them to manually download, after attempting that they still show as greyed out in the Products tab.
Example: The Aquila Ensemble for Genesis 3 Female(s).
