Cannot acces Face Transfer plug-in

I just purchased the Daz Face Transfer Unlimited:  https://www.daz3d.com/face-transfer-unlimited

I discovered it is not an installable download, but instead, a plugin that was part of the original Daz installation, which for me is v. 4.12.   I followed the downloadable user guide, opened Daz, went to <Help> then to <About Installed plugins...>, then, found the "dzfacetransfer" pulgin.   However, the "plug" next to it was red and there was a note in the information box "Plugin failed to load!" in bold red.   The filename reads "C:/Program Files/DAZ 3D/DAZStudio4/plugins/dzfacetransfer.dll"    I went to that file location and did find the referenced .dll file there.

It also says

Reason: Library could not be loaded.  File is not a valid DAZ studio plug-in, or was made for a different version of DAZ Studio.

I then found an older tech forum post wherein it indicated that the Gen 8 Starter Essentials need to be reloaded, so I did for both male and female.   But it didn't change anything.

Does the plug-in work for 4.12?  Does anyone know what is going on with this product?

Try installing the current Public Build, it will isntall some Microsoft libraries that may be missing and causing the plug-in to fail https://www.daz3d.com/daz-studio-beta (this won't chnage the release build; you can install the libraries separately but this method may be simpler).

Thank you, that worked!
