What Is Up With My DIM?

Ever since I updated my DIM to version 1.0.1.108, any new installations I make are corrupted. The installation pathway is default, so there's nothing tampered with. Even if I do customize an installation pathway, it's still corrupt.

As of right now, I'm trying to make the following install:

FW Darc
La Cage
DA Festive Hat
His EarStuff

    Not all, but I've had trouble with some lately. Also in the data files.

    Darc uses some of the G2M Evolution morphs, which I don't have, but otherwise works fine, as do the Earrings and La Cage. Did you check that the DIM install path is still listed in DS as a DS-format content folder?

    It should be. I even tested to make sure if that was the problem by uninstalling and re-installing a product that does provide all the appropriate files, and it worked just fine. So why will these file not work, then?

    If you go to the Installed tab in DIM, right-click on one of them and choose "Show Installed Files", does DIM list the missing files in the proper location as a blue clickable link, black non-clickable text, or not at all?

    All of them show-up blue and clickable.

    Well that's a new one. I've not seen a item fail to install only SOME of the data files. All I've seen but never just some.

    I even tried accessing the Studio application through the supposedly missing data file itself (which evidently IS there), but even then it's a no-go.

    Can you post your Content Directory Manager?

    No problem. However, before I did, I actually tried uninstalling and reinstalling everything in the DIM to see if that would correct everything. The good news is, everything that I as having trouble with before is properly installed, however, now many other products are appearing with missing .duf's, including the Genesis and Genesis 2 Female Starter Essentials.

    The following directories are the default, and two custom paths exclusively for personally made presets and 3rd party content.

    The first path in DS has an extra DAZ 3D compared to the location those data files were actually in.

    Okay, I did some reorganization with all my DAZ directories and everything from installed content to the the DIM Installation Path is all directed simply at the "My DAZ 3D Library" and everything works now.

    Though, that only leaves one question... What is up with Enchanted for Genesis? That item has ALWAYS been reappearing in my "Ready To Download" tab like that, even though I've installed it a million times.
