DxO Optics Pro 11 question

For those that use DxO Optics Pro 11, have you experienced the following?: When bringing in photos to the program for processing I frequently get DxO's module dialog telling me what modules I need to download to process my images. I have already downloaded all the lenses and camera combinations I have used. The dialog shows six lenses + my camera combinations that I have never used. I don't know why the program does this or if it effects the image processing. I have submitted a support ticket to DxO but have not hear from them yet. I've attached a screenshot of the dialog. Many thanks for any help or explanation.

Somewhere along the line you have downloaded images with specific lens/body combinations that the app automatically reads and sends this message regarding. It could very well be one that you downloaded from this website or another source. If you don't want the popup just uncheck the box in the lower left or you could just delete those images individually from your HD. That's what I do.

Thanks. But I'm confused because I've only had the program for about a month and downloaded only images from my camera lens combos. I realize I can uncheck the box in the corner, but then if I use a camera+lens combo in the future that I have never used before, will the program still prompt me to download the new module?

Just download all the camera and lens modules that you already have. Then this box will not appear. I would just leave that box checked, that way it will appear if you use a different camera or lens. You can also download different modules at anytime.

Leave the box checked. I have found that in some cases the best thing the program does is correct for lens aberrations.

Thanks, but the lenses I use are already downloaded. The six lenses the dialog tells me to download are lenses I do not own and have never used. That's what confuses me. I have no idea where DxO is getting info on these lenses. Definitely not from the images I have put into the program for processing. I have now heard back from DxO. They're asking me to tell them what exact lenses I use and they will try to get to the cause of the problem. I really appreciate your feedback. Hopefully DxO can figure it out. Many thanks.
