    I installed Nexus v5.9.1 and Expansions without any problem. But I found some Artist Series Expansions were located in Folders menu, not in Expansions menu. and no proper icons for those showed up too like the image below(You can see just the same grey folder icons).

    Thanks to someone on Internet, I found a fix, that is changing the names of those Presets and NKS folders in Nexus library path like below.

    XP Artist Series 7 Skies ---> XP 7 Skies

    Using this tip, all Artist Series Expasions moved from Folders list to Expansions list on Nexus 5 main screen and show their icons well.

    BUT...

    After that, their Presets' Character dots do not lit at all. Please see the comparison image below.

    After digging through the related files for a while, I found 'tags.csv' file in C:\Users\Public\Documents\reFX\NEXUS path has metadata of Presets.

    As an experiment, I opend the file using text editor, searched that Expansions' Preset data and modified some line like below.

    "XP Artist Series 7 Skies 2/AR 303",939210 ---> "XP 7 Skies 2/AR 303",939210

    Happily it seeemed to work. the Preset's Character info showed normally.

    BUT...

    When I close Nexus 5 and relaunch it, tags.csv files content rolled back to its previous state automatically.

    I can change that file's property to 'read only' to prevent that automatic rollback, but it seems not a cool method, could cause another problem I think.

    Is there any other solution for that matter? Any advice is welcome.
