Syntax error loading Marcoor Control Room Aged

Shimrian

Hi, I'm hoping someone can help me out here. I purchansed SS Marcoor Control Room and Marcoor Control Room Aged during the summer sale, but getting issues with the material set on the addon. The Materials folder shows the Iray Materials with an error and the logs show that there is a Syntax error - expected '{' or '[' when trying to load the asset. I've uninstalled and installed multiple times and still it does not work. I know others must be using it correctly however since I see it used in the Gallery (1).

I'm wondering if this is an install issue, but not sure how to solve it. I install all my items directly from DS (while logged in). I attached a screenshot of my UI.

Logs show:

The "Syntax error - expected '{' or '[' " is typical of faulty decryption or download using Connect. Try deleting the Product and download a fresh version.

How do I delete and download a fresh version? I'm using Smart Content tab in Daz. I clicked uninstall and reinstall and that didn't work. I also opened file location and deleted the entire folder that it was in and tried to reinstall it after that, but it still shows the same error.

Not sure, actually. I don't use Connect.
