Properties Pane Preset List Broken Worse Than Ever

A few days ago I posted that I had trouble with shader and material presets that I had saved and later deleted, still appearing in my Properties>Surfaces>Presets list. ( http://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/88501/deleted-presets-still-listed-with-blank-images#latest ) I tried the solutions that were offered ...
... and now things are broken even worse. As the attached image shows, I still have all of my deleted files in the list. And now the DAZ Studio 4.9 Iray presets have vanished from the Properties>Surfaces>Presets list.
Yes, they're still listed in my Content Manager pane. No, my deleted shader and material presets do not appear in my Content Manager pane. This is not a problem with the Content Manager pane.
This is a problem with the Properties pane. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling DAZ 4.9. That did not fix the problem.
Any ideas?

I assume you mean the Iray presets are and the deleted presets are not in the Content Library pane under DAZ Studio Formats?
All of the DAZ 4.9 Iray presets are still in the Content Pane>DAZ Studio Formats>My DAZ 3D Library>Shader Presets>Iray>DAZ Uber folder.
My deleted presets are not in Content Pane>DAZ Studio Formats>My DAZ 3D Library>Shader Presets, or in Content Pane>DAZ Studio Formats>My Library>Presets>Shaders.
My still-existing shaved presets are in Content Pane>DAZ Studio Formats>My Library>Presets>Shaders.
In other words, the Content Pane lists are exactly as they should be. This is not about the Content Pane list.
This is about the Properties Pane list. My deleted presets are still in Properties Pane>Surfaces>Presets>Saved Files. The DAZ Studio 4.9 Iray presets are not in Properties Pane>Surfaces>Presets>Shaders.
If you go to Content Library pane > Categories > Presets > Shaders, can you delete the orphaned icons there? (And the same for Categories > Shaders if they show up there.)
Do the presets you saved that are still existing show up in Content Library > Categories > Shaders (or Presets > Shaders)?
Yes, the DAZ 4.9 Iray shaders are in the Content Library (under DAZ Studio Formats>My DAZ 3D Library>Shader Presets>Iray>DAZ Uber), as are the presets that I saved and kept (under DAZ Studio Formats>My Library>Presets>Shaders). The presets I saved and deleted are not in the Content Library. The Content Library is exactly as it should be.
This is about the Properties Pane lists, where you find Parameters, Shaping, Posing, Surfaces, Lights, and Cameras. Within the Surfaces tab, at the top there are three tabs: Presets, Editor, and Shader Baker. Within Surfaces>Presets there are drop-downs for Materials, Props, Shaders, and Saved Files.
I want to get the DAZ 4.9 Iray shaders back into the Parameters>Surfaces>Presets>Shaders list, and my saved-but-later-deleted files out of the Parameters>Surfaces>Presets>Saved Files list.
Okay ... I uninstalled DAZ Studio 4.9 and Default Resources for DAZ Studio 4.9+, restarted my computer, reinstalled DAZ Studio 4.9 and Default Resources, then restarted again:
So ... uninstalling, restarting, reinstalling, and restarting again got me back to my original problem: the saved-but-later-deleted presets still appearing in my Parameters>Surfaces>Presets>Saved Files list.
Not Content Library > Daz Studio Formats, Content Library > Categories. See if you can delete them from there.
That did it!!!!!
I misread your earlier reply. I sincerely apologize. Thank you so much, Mike!
