Wearables presets not loading associated pose preset

I have a persistent problem that when a wearables preset is also supposed to include a pose preset, the pose portion of the preset does not load.
While there are ways of fixing it by mucking around in the files, I would like to fix whatever the general problem is, because clearly it works for other people.

Have you turned off the option to parent fitted items to the fit-to target? That might confuse it, as it would not be the expected hierarchy. The log would probably tell you if that was the stumbling block.
These aren't presets I've made, this is any preset of this nature from store products - e.g: https://www.daz3d.com/sy-dforce-towels-for-genesis-8 which contains matched prop/poses - so I can reasonably assume that the files should work without having to mess around with any options.
Parenting after fitting is a Daz Studio setting, not a content setting. Do the items in fact get parented to the figure?
The items do get parented to the figure (which I assume is the expected behaviour), but the posing does not load.
There is nothing in the log that indicates any obvious error - these are the entirety of the log entries relating to an attempt to load "SYTG8 Towel Dry Face 01 Right G8F.duf"
And yes, I've checked this file in Notepad++ to be absolutely sure that it's also supposed to include pose data, but only the prop loads. (And no, the figure is not locked in any fashion).
This is consistent across all combined wearable/pose presets that I can recall. They also do not load shape presets that I can tell (I've got a wearable I made where I know I included a shape preset, and which used to work, but now the wearable preset only loads the graft).
I tested nearly all of the presets (directly load each Pose presets with towel ) and found they all work well~ So which preset has such a problem?
No wearable preset, regardless of product or whether it is one I have created myself, that is supposed to load a pose or shape at the same time is loading anything other than the prop or clothing; this particular set was just used as an example of the kind of presets that are not functioning.
As such, I do not believe the presets themselves are the issue, but instead a configuration problem with DS that is stopping them loading correctly. However, I don't know what, and I'm really rather hoping that I can fix the problem without having to re-install DS entirely and lose all my other settings in the process.
Where is your G8 Starter Essentials located? Have you ever installed it via Daz Connect?
E:/Program Data/Daz Studio/Daz Content/
I don't believe so, but even if it ever was, my Daz Connect library is currently empty.
Maybe try another test... Do you have G3 ? Load a G3F and apply the wearable, see if her pose changes no matter it'll be correct or not. If there's a pose triggered, probably there's sth. wrong with G8 essentials...
This is not specific to G8. It happens with every figure.
