Is that a trick question?

Ok let me frame this.  My advisor has been wanting to see my Thesis for the
past month.  Which I shared through Box and requires syncing to his
computer.  After installing LyX MikTeX a couple of months ago only and
writing a step by step guide to install MikTeX, LyX, and necessary
UW-Madtown withesis to find it not working when we actually tried it.  I
upgraded all the machines to Latest MikTeX and LyX. I then had to update
all the howto docs and get it to work on his computer.  Time then passes
due to 4th.  One machine works(sort of)/worked and it now works for
article.cls as a test, but not when generating the thesis.  It did work.
My personal laptop did not work for article.cls as a test but after
uninstall/reinstall a article.cls dependent .lyx file will generate.  See
prior "Scorched Earth" post. However...  get this LyX still reports it as
Unavailable in Document -> Settings.  The School computer (not Advisors
computer)  reports article.cls as there and can generate.  When using
withesis which did work piror (a couple of weeks ago) no longer compiles
and times out with spinning wheel at bottom of LyX and error screens to
confine and ultimately unable to generate using pdflatex.  I also have my
Thesis tracked in git and will commit an roll back to see if School
machine, the machine that has been most successful of late, can create the
pdf.

I tried again to get it to work on my advisors computer this Wednesday and
failed with same error as I am now seeing on my other two laptops, though
with varying degrees.

So uhhh yeah you could say I am in a hurry for my thesis at least so I can
start revisions with my Advisor.

Could LyX be reporting Unavailable when in reality the cls and deps are
there?  Is this a bug in LyX?
