I downloaded the 4.9 Beta which was prior to the official release build and since I export a lot of content for animation I discovered real quick there was a issue with the FBX export taking the facial morphs with them and continued to use 4.8 and followed the progress for the fix. So my plugin for Alembic Exporter would have been a version for the 4.9+ and updates after the Official Public 4.9 and may have excluded the pre release beta version I was using. After you told me there was the FBX fix in this current update and pointed out the beta I figured the same thing yesterday, since the beta's doesn't overwrite your current public release version why not update the old 4.9 beta and went via the DIM. It worked a treat I have the latest 4.9 beta complete with the Alembic Exporter and the fix for the FBX facial Morphs fully functioning.

The AE is listed as 4.5+ installs etc but it will only work in 4.9+ public build onwards and you find this out with a warning message in the plugin pane of DS where it tells you the plugin is for a later version than the one you have installed.
