    I have bookmarked this thread  for future reference
    when explaiing to people why Daz studio (and any Genesis to Maya plugin that uses the Daz CMS),

    Will never be used in professional environmens where large teams need to access the same Daz content  for mutliple work stations.

    According to EULA everyone on the team needs to buy their own copy of the product lol.

    It is not so much that as it is the FACT that professional team's store their assets on central server. The Daz CMS wouldn't be usable based on the facts posted in this thread.

    If the dsx files are stored in a central location the CMS could be re-imported from there for each machine, and besides you only need CMS to access smart data, and it is quite possible that a professional team will have set up their own access mechanism using the content library, which does not need it.

    You do not need to uninstall all your products in order to reset the database used by smart content. All the files it needs are in runtime/support, and as long as these have not been moved, simply reset the database, and then re-import the metadata. If you don't know how to do this, the right-click in the Content Library tab, and select "Content DB Maintenance"

    These two steps take around 5 mins to execute, a good deal faster than uninstalling/reinstalling all your products. You need to restart DIM after doing this.

    Thanks.

    It is has many features I've never seen before regarding CMS dB maintaining like exporting & importing

    If they did have a corporate license or even individuals in some Indy freelance game llc situation if each owned the same content if they were sharing the DIM installed content library root directory shared via a internet file system like OneDrive, that would work fine. Well, for folk that had fibre optic internet speeds it would be reasonable. It'd have to be private shared access internet file system though.

    That doesn't mean that Windows 7 will stop working.

    Well, I don't have to worry anymore because I just went ahead and updated to WINDOWS 10, BLEH!!! I was going to have to do it in a couple of months anyway since they are cutting all ties with 7 you know. So I bit the bullet... Thanks for trying guys. I really appreciated the efforts...

    Right, I know. But they are going to stop supporting it all together and I have other programs that will need updating and such so O thought it just best. Especially with not being able to use my DAZ Studio. But I guess that I am just going to have to just manually download all my content because it's still happening to me. I completely fresh install of WINDOWS 10 and no messing with the installation either of IM or DS and still they are not where they are supposed to be. I've never had such an issue like this but it's ridiculous. Sorry for any typo's...

    help

    I stuffed up my DIM update on my Windows 7

    now I cannot run or uninstall DIM

    or

    remove the exe even with CCleaner

    I cannot restore previous versions as it won't let me overwrite it from my backup either

    Glad your problem seems resolved but it took me three tries to parse your last sentence.surprise  I kept reading it as "update never.  mine managed to reinstall..."  I couldn't figure out what app "never" was.frown  Probably because I was mentally sounding the word as "nee-ver".blush

    I came to this thread and read my own advice to the OP which I had just unsuccessfully triedblush

    turns out it did actually work because the folder I was seeing did not actually exist anymore 

    weird windows behaviour
