Strange Missing Files SOLVED

I was working on a V4 render and I usually go and change all the surfaces to the base iray, and work on them from there.  However, the shader set for that (that comes with Studio) seems to be gone.  Its the sample settings that come with studio.  Can't find them anywhere and can't find them in DIM either. I'm sure its just me but I need those - they include the shader to turn things emissive.  Can someone tell exactly where those should be? I've gone through everything at least twice and they are definitely MIA.

Edited to add that if I remember correctly they are usually found in Shaders/Iray/ ....Ive looked in both the shaders and the shader presets and can't find them.

    They should be in Shader Presets/Iray/Daz Uber.

    They won't be in DIM as a separate product. I'm pretty sure they're part of the Default Resources

    That's what I thought.  But they aren't there. 

    I just went and looked in the files themselves and its not there either.  I have no idea why that would have disappeared, I don't make changes to the main files, I only use custom categories.  I did have a catastrophic exterior drive failure, but everything else except for a couple of items for V4 morphs have made the transition to the new drive just fine.

    So if its not in DIM how do I track it down and re install to the main library?

    I figured it out.  I just went and did a manual download of the default resources and manually installed them where they go.
