Uininstall/reinstall still shows product in old location. Help?

I accidentally installed some DAZ Studio content into my Photoshop directory (forgot to set the default DIM directly back to the "Recommended.." one). I uninstalled them and then reinstalled them, but Content Library > Products still thinks they are installed to Photoshop directory. Anyone know how I can straighten this out?

    If you select them and right-click there should be Database>Edit Base path.... Don't choose the update all option if you really do have some files in the Photoshop folder, though you don't install brushes that way - they go to the Photoshop location set in the Applications tab of the DIM preferences, not a content location.

    Thanks Richard!!!! I also had to remove orphans to clear out the preferred path, which still pointed to the Photoshop directory. I never thought to look at the individual files -- I was focusing on the folder. Thank you, you were a huge help!!! Especially considering one of these was Studio Pro Light 4.6. Painful not having access to that one!!

    One more problem -- I kept trying various things to get one working, including deleting meta data, the product, etc. and now it no longer shows up in the Product list after uninstalling and reinstalling it (even after refreshing the parent directory). Any ideas on that one?!

    Never mind!! Uninstall + deleting the package, then re-downloading it and installing did the trick. Thanks again for all the help!!!

    Good, as I wasn't immediately thinking of anything.
