Daz Install Manager Proof of Problem

In several threads I have stated that the DIM doesn't work for me. However, from responses I always get apparently I'm the only one the DIM doesn't like. I downloaded DIM again so that I was sure I received the latest version. But yet again DIM didn't do it's job for me. So here's the proof.

Every one of the icons on this product will not work because Daz gives the same error: Missing Files...Some assets needed to load the file were missing. The content may not work at expected. The following files could not be found. This happens with every one of the files for any of the products I download with DIM. If there is something I can or should do to make DIM work, I'm all ears. Otherwise, here's the proof.

    Check that the library location in DIM is added as a content location for both Studio AND Poser in the content library manager.

    If you don't want to use the default DIM library location, add the one you currently use, uninstall the products via DIM from the old location and install it to the new location.

    Just as a point of interest, in your first screenshot I can see the 'My Library' folder listed in your taskbar. However, the DIM is looking for a folder called '!!My Library' (sic). Is this still the correct folder you're trying to install to, and if so are you certain that Daz is looking for the files within that particular content folder?

    Herald, I wasn't using "My Library" at all. It was just a closed window.

    Edit: Ops I didn't realize that was not for me.

    Where do you get that he's using '!!My Library'? That DIM screenshot is mine, posted for the label references in red.

    Thanks Vaskania but I'm having a bit of trouble understanding any of what you showed me so I'm going to need more time to read it carefully enough to figure it out. But I will get back to you with a better reply as soon as possible.

    Can you post these 2 screenshots:
    1) In DS, Edit > Preferences > Content Library > Content Directory Manager, expand the "DAZ Studio Formats" and "Poser Formats".
    2) In DIM, on Ready to Install tab check the "Show Details" box in the lower right.
