Can't get this to work

installed beta version

i rendered a test genesis 9 figure as below

I have a paid version of facetransfer 2 licence enabled

result facetransfer can't  find the default clothes? seems to be looking for a utilities folder? checked this but  it doesnt exist

if you load a genesis 9 figure then try facetransfer to it it also fails

reinstalled everything no change

downloaded genesis 9 essentials and reinstalled no change

    Did you install the extra essentials files listed in this thread? https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/662091

    Ah that may be why thanks

    still no go

    i have the genesis 9 male and female  with basic wear, in the folder at that location it's a dson file should it be a duf file?

    C:\Users\Public\Documents\My DAZ 3D Library\data\DAZ 3D\Genesis 9 Starter Essentials\Utilities

    C:\Users\Public\Documents\My DAZ 3D Library\data\DAZ 3D\Genesis 9\Base\Tools\Presets

    "DSON user file" is correct for the file type, that's what "duf" means

    The files seem to be in the right place, so I don't really know why you'd get an error...

    What is the base folder for your Content Library?

    Surely not "/Downloads/981a86fc537c814f9590d4d18add17(2)"

    You can find the base folder in Content Directory Manager

    These manual installation instructions will explain, where the files are meant to be installed

    Hi Thankyou all for your help

    My content dir is on a different drive, it used to be in c: user/ public/ documents, I have completely uninstalled everything again, this time i deleted the content dir and reinstalled. This time I unpacked the zip file into the content dir and it's started working

    I still have postgre SQL CMS public build showing as uninstalled, it refuses to install, also GOZ for daz studio 4.22 not installed,

    What a pain this turned out to be

    Im just re importing the meta data again  to recover the content

    It looks a lot better than face transfer 1, It however hasn't transfered the shape of the face very well the textures look good

    I tried a test figure with a bumpy nose and eyeslids with a slight slant

    Someone complained that it does a poor job with eye shape and pointed to the product promos as examples.

    It looks like the postgre SQL CMS public build is either that or postgre SQL CMS not sure why

    I've now tried a different examples and I'm getting varying poor results, miss shaped heads, quite a few don't look anything like they should so.

    It seems to be reasonably good at the head shape, but not so good on the detail
