DAZ cannot find 3rd party hair after categorizing it.

I've been using DAZ for a few months. I downloaded some 3rd party hair and have been successfully using it on my G3F-based figures.

2 Days ago I finally caught on to the ability to categorize my assets. So I did a lot of categorizing, including categorizing that 3rd party hair.

Now when I open my scenes that use that hair, the hair shows up as a gray block, which I am told indicates that DAZ cannot find that asset.

I’ve been fixing this by re-loading the hair. And also copy and pasting each of the hair settings from the gray block version to the reloaded version. Then deleting the gray block version. But I have lots of scenes using this hair, and would prefer not to do this fix for every scene.

Near as I can tell, the hair has not actually changed location. It still appears in, and can be loaded from, the same original place in the “Content Library” tab it has always been.

So far this hair is the only asset that has been gray blocked since my categorization spree. But I worry there may be other assets now gray blocked that I have not yet discovered.

Your advice will be appreciated.
