Help! Strange unexplainable posing problems suddenly... (Resolved)

I'm having an issue with posing my figure all of a sudden. Suddenly there's limits on the arms of Genesis 8. I don't know if this was an update or if it's something I did myself without knowing, but it's really strange and I don't know how to fix it. Suddenly I can only bend the figure's arm so far. It will only bend to 40 unless I turn off limits. The biggest problem though is the way the arm expands (deforms) when I do the full shoulder bend.

(Links updated)
Here's the arm in the default state: https://i.imgur.com/bBDFDnD.png
Now here's what happens to her bicep when I fully bend it: https://i.imgur.com/3fzLsmu.png (it expands/morphs on its own)
Here's the maximum bend: https://i.imgur.com/QEJVFb0.png

Her arm won't even fully bend to her side and there's a very strange morph I've never encountered before.

I did however buy a figure from most-digital-creations.com recently and I also updated with Daz Install Manager around the same time, so I think one of these actions may have corrupted something maybe?

Is there a way to re-install Genesis 8 or reconfigure things back to how they were before?

    Mods may complain about links to nudity.

    The standard diagnostic advice is usually to load Genesis 8 base figure, pose her in the problematic pose. Select her in the Scene pane. The open the Parameters pane and put a check mark on Show Hidden in the context menu (hamburger menu). Click on Currently Used and see what morphs show up. Report back what morphs you see. Maybe something you installed is causing a morph to be dialed in when G8F is loaded, instead of only when that product is loaded.

    Really sorry about the nude figure! I'll update the image links right now with a clothed figure.
    I'll report back with the morphs.

    I found it! Thank you! It was a morph that I didn't even realize I had. Thanks for teaching me the diagnostic process!

    yes Great, I'm glad you got it fixed. Thanks for reporting back on the outcome. And double thanks for updating the thread title to show it is resolved. That may help someone else searching for a solution to a similar issue.

    Edit to add one more thought. If the "bad" morph is from a product in the Daz Store, please submit a help request to report the problem so they can fix it,
