Hello,

When I try to install various plugins I get these errors,

Warning
---------------------------
"Genesis Evolution Head Morphs" has a dependency on another product and the required file(s) could not be found in the chosen location.

Please choose a different installation location.
---------------------------
OK
------------------------------------
Warning
---------------------------
"Benjamin for M5 Legacy" is an add-on for "Genesis" and they must be installed in the same location.

Please choose a different install location or install the required products first.

If you need further assistance with this, please contact tech support at www.daz3d.com > SUPPORT > Contact Us.
---------------------------

    These are not Plugins, but morphs, just to that you know. Plugins are usually .DLL files which are stored in the Plugins folder for DAZ Studio in the Applications folder (Program Files on Windows).

    How did you install Genesis Starter Essentials, using DIM (DAZ Install Manager), if so, it will have installed to the default location.
    C:\Users\Public\Documents\My DAZ 3D Library, so that is where the Genesis Head morphs MUST be installed to as well.

    Benjamin is a character for the Michael 5 shape, do you have M5 installed? If not, Benjamin may not look as expected when used on the Base Genesis figure.

    Where are these error messages coming from? Are you using the DIM or an older installer?

    If you use DIM to install these files, they will go into the correct folders.

    This is something that should be put into the Daz3d Install Manager's on screen dialog when you install anything at all for daz3d because unless you run into a problem like this and know how to solve problems well then you most likely will not know there are two different libraries, one that is public and one that is associated with just your windows profile.

    Not sure what you mean here?   The default folder for DIM installs is C:\Users\Public\Documents\My DAZ 3D Library, but you can add any folder of your own to DIM, and it will install there.   I don;t know what you mean "by one that is public and one that is associated with just your windows profile."

    You can read the documentation on the Install manager here :

    Are you installing them using an old stand-alone installer?  The DIM-ready zips shouldn't throw a dependency error.
