Best way to repair all my product installs?

I'm pretty sure some of my downloaded products have got corrupted or damaged in some way.

What is the best technique please to repair EVERYTHING?!

I realise this might need to run overnight, as I have a lot of stuff!

I could uninstall and reinstall I guess, but I suspect that there's a better way.

Thank you! Nick

    Need more information.

    How are you installing?

    Where have you looked for the products?

    Hi Felis, and thanks for replying.

    I've been using the Daz install manager.

    I use Smart Content in Daz Sudio to locate the products, then right click and choose "show in content library". Some of the products I have, that DIM thinks are installed do not show up. Other occasionally act a bit wierd, (not working properly).  I can locate something I know I bought in DIM, and get it to install again, but I think the best plan is to repair everything, rather than do it piecemeal as I notice.

    So I'm hoping for a check / repair option, rather than reinstally everything.

    Thank you,

    Nick

    Can you attach a screenshot of what your Smart Content look like?

    And have you tried to find them in your Content Library?

    OK, I found an option to repair the database in Studio, which seemed a good idea!

    I ran it and a bunch of stuff appeared I had not seen in spart content / all items. But some stuff that was there yesterday was no longer visible.

    Fired up the Install Manager and a LOT of items had appeared in the "ready to download" tab, which also seems encouraging, so I set it off to work through those, which it is slowly oing at the moment.

    I will report back when it's done. 

    Thanks for the help!

    Is Microsoft One Dive moving your files to the "cloud'?

    No, I don't use MS 1 drive, or anythin g like that.

    A lot more stuff has appeared, but it's not acting like I expect, in at least one case a pose affects the orientation of the figure, but not the limb positions.

    I'll try and capture something clear in screenshots. But I'm thinking it might be lowest effert to just uninstall and reinstall everything...

    Not using it doesn't guarantee it won'r do its pestiferous thing.
