CCS 5 does not find or recognize DSP\BIOS 5.42. Prj checked out of RCS onto PC

I migrated a CCS 3.3 to CCS 5.5. I did it manually as a New Project. I added the files and added the .tcf. Adding the .tcf caused the project to convert to RTSC capable after prompting to notify the user.

I got the project to compile, program, and run. I checked into StarTeam revision control. I went to another PC and checked it out and imported into CCS 5.5. I got the following error:

-------------------------------------------------

This project was created using a version of DSP/BIOS tools that is not currently installed: 5.42.1.09. Please install the DSP/BIOS tools of this version, or migrate the project to one of the supported versions.

-------------------------------------------------

I closed and deleted the project selecting the option to delete from disk as well. I closed CCS 5.5. I checked the files out of RCS again.

I downloaded and installed DSP\BIOS 5.42. I still had the same issue. I went through the steps again, close & delete project with delete disk contents and then close CCS 5.5.

I re-installed the DSP\BIOS 5.42. I rebooted the PC. I imported the project again. I get the same error.

I selected the CCS option to discover new installations on Startup. Same issue after import.

I found this:

But those didn't give a clear answer for my case.

What do I need to do to get CCS to recognize my DSP\BIOS installation?

    Working with my local FAE, we tried lots of ideas. He had the one that worked. He usually does!

    During the course of trying things, we uninstalled any DSP\BIOS that was not installed into the CCS3.3 Studio directory. The rationale being that CCS 5.5 was not pointing to any CCS 3.3 directories and we did not want to "break" that installation.

    We tried a bunch of other stuff, adding directories to the Preferences->CCS->RTSC Products, dragging .tcf files, checking under Help->Install New, Help->Update, reboot, enable "Preferences->CCS->RTSC Products->Automatically Discover..." and more.

    But the fix was to delete the C:\ti\bios_5_42_01_09\Eclipse folder. Just the Eclipse folder, not the whole tree. Of course, this was done with CCS 5.5 closed. Start CCS 5.5 WITHOUT the"Preferences->CCS->RTSC Products->Automatically Discover..." checked. Start CCS 5.5, goto "Preferences->CCS->RTSC Products" and the 5.42.1.09 DSP\BIOS was listed there. I imported the project and it built.
