Windows 10, latest version. Use DIM.
Loaded a scene and got a weird error that Starter Essentials was "missing files" popup. Scen was fine yesterday.
I was holding off updating to see if there were any issues with latest, but figured maybe they're related.
So I go into DIM, do the auomatic download install process and my dektop icon is gone, and I can't even see it installed with the windows start menu.
I'm open to suggestions.

Phew.
Windows issue, not Daz.
Last Windows update must have modified my Defender exception list. Defender would allow uninstall, but blocked install.
Weird that Windows only gave me a clue via notification when I tried to do a manual install of Studio. Not while DIM tried.
Should anyone else run into the issue: Turn off all the Reputation-based protection in Windows Defender (Windows Security/App&Browser Control), then let DIM do it's thing.
