RESOLVED: Latest Daz Update Wiped out my Studio install

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.
