Installed but nowhere to be found

Any idea when this will work? I have tried everything. First, downloaded it from Daz store just to be sure. Next, check Install Manager advanced settings to ensure that the correct path is pointing to Max. Under the Installed tab, Daz to 3ds Max is installed. I uninstalled it and tried again. Daz Central states it is installed and gives me the option to Open but it does nothing. Last, Under Scripts, there is no option for it. Being that I work in Max, I could really use this.

I searched the forums, 3ds Max and Daz to 3ds Max Bridge but nothing came up. Youtube videos make it look so simple but I just don't have the script. How do I get this?

    Did you have it installed with DIM and Daz Central at the same time? Did you uninstall one before installing another? Did you add Max to the "Installation" and "Applications" tab?  You shouldn't use both Daz Central and DIM systems. Daz Central is a simplified version of DIM and therefore mostly targeting beginners. DIM is what an experienced user should use because of the numerous capabilities of it and being able to set custom paths. Using both will cause conflicts with the products and things can not work properly. I'm not a Max user so can't comment on the bridge but wanted to point out the "possible" issue(s). Can you possibly show a screenshot of your paths in DIM for us?

    Attached is a screenshot of my Applications tab in DIM. The installation tab is only for the content path, that is what I always believed.

    I have tried previous versions of Max with no success. I realize that in the screenshot that it is 3ds Max 2021 pointing to 2023 but I have many different versions pointing to the correct version installation. This just does not work.

    Installing Daz to Max Bridge means putting Daz to 3ds Max.dsa script in the ".../DAZStudio4/scripts/support/DAZ" folder. Is that file really there?

    I recently built a new computer. Installing Daz to this new computer resolved the issue.

    And what installer did you use? DIM or Daz Central?
