Daz Central Plugin Re-install

I have recently update unreal and zbrush. When I attempt to re-install the plugin for these apps from Daz Central I am not prompted for the location of the app.

Is there any way to reset this so that I am prompted for install location?

Is there a manual way to change the install location for plugins that are associated with other apps?

 

Any help would be appreciated.

    If you set the paths for the applications in DIM then DazCentral should pick them up.

    If you are using Unreal and Z-Brush you are an advance user and shouldn't be using Central as that is a dumbed down version of DIM aimed at new users.

    Not necessarily, different kinds of advanced that may or may not overlap.

    @Fixmypcmike When I used DIM they would not always register as installed in Daz Central and also did not prompt for a new location. I will give it another go. Thanks for the reply.

    @Jestmart Not really a helpful reply. I would not call myself an advanced user but I am advanced enough that I can edit an .ini or registry string to update the location of the install path. Not rocket science. I was assuming DIM is going away at some point since they introduced a new install product. I also tried to re-install using DIM and it did not prompt. I am just looking for the actual file or registry entry to update.

    There was a bug in DIM that would prompt you for the path but not let you enter it, which has been fixed.

    DIM isn't going away - DazCentral was intended to be easier for new users, at the expense of limiting the number of options.  There are features that are only available in DIM.

    Thanks @Fixmypcmike that worked. Found the install path in DIM.
