How do I get rid of these uninstalled icons?

pkappetein

I uninstalled several items, to find out an issue,   but during uninstall through DIM,  I end up with tons of these items.

I tried re-imporing the Meta Data,  with and without Userdata checked.

But they are still there..   I have tons of those items, and deleting them 1 by one is going to be a pain, since you can't do more then 1 at a time.

Is there an easier way, without deleting the Database and re-import everything ?

Switched to my  Connect database and was trying to get rid of all the bad icons. so I did a delete Database
and now all my Connect files are showing as uninstalled.
How can I make them all active again.   I tried install, but it will download the files again.
and that's not what i want. (don't want to re-download 200 Gb  while the files are there already)

So put the old CMS database back with DIM.   and stuck again with 1200 of those icons that are bad.

Is there really no way to get rid of them in a descent way?    

I am pretty sure I never had that problem that bad..   with the previous installer (DIM)

Anyone??

Thank you

Why is there so much problems with all of this...   paid $$$$ for items, and nothing but problems with that stupid database.

If they are in the same place then they shouldn't download - Connect will see the files, confirm their signatures match those on the server, and skip downloading.

Looks like you are right... yay.. Thanks..

Still wonder why  DIM products are not getting removed from the program  after uninstall..and leaving that "U"  icons behind.

U is, or should be, User data - stuff you have categorised yourself not stuff DIM did (and therefore not stuff DIM can undo).
