How do I uninstall content in Daz Studio 4.8?
Hi,
First off, Happy New Year to you! May you be blessed.
Next, how dumb am I? I can't seem to find the uninstallers for content that Daz always installs. You know that extra few seconds you have to wait when it says installing uninstallers, 25%, 50%, 75%, boom, installed. I looked in both libraries: the MY LIBRARY and the MY DAZ 3D LIBRARY uninstaller files way at the bottom of the aphabetical list. There's a few unistallers inside the folders but not the hundreds that should be there. I use the DIM alot and I'm assuming it installs them but I don't see any. I also looked inside the DIM downloads and there's none there either.
Am I looking in the wrong places. My computer is WIndows 8.1 if that helps any.
Thanks, guys!

You seem to be describing the old installation process, where we had to download an executable archive file — the .zip installers we've had for the last two or three years don't include uninstaller files. If you used DIM to install anything, the easiest and quickest way to uninstall is to use DIM.

I've been using DIM the last year. Everything was installed through it, although ocassionally some files are still the old installers, but I didn't know that DIM didn't install uninstallers...until now. Ha! So, OK, fair enough, if there are no more uninstallers built in, how do I, as you say, use DIM to uninstall specific files. Inside DIM, the only thing I see how to uninstall is DIM itself. How do I uninstall specific content. I don't see uninstallers anywhere. Yeah, I'm a real professional DAZ Studio user...not!
Thanks for setting me straight, SpottedKitty, now if you can just explain the rest of it, I'll be on solid ground!
Go to the Installed tab in DIM and click the Uninstall button for the item (or tick the boxes for multiple items and click Start Queue).

Oh, my goodness! So easy! I never thought of looking inside the DIM installed partition. Not once did it cross my mind that that's where the uninstallers would be. I searched inside the actual DIM program folder located in the Public Docs where all the downloads go. Boy, do I feel stupid. Well, thank you for enlightening me, Mike. I am morbidly humbled at my ineptness. If I could give you a hug, I would. Consider it done.Thank you very, very much!
