The V2 redistribuatble CR 2 isn't a figure, so that won't work at all. If you download the Egyptian content from your DAZ account page that will give you reduced resolution versions of Victoria and Michael. For the rest, pick one or more folders to install to (DAZDAZ StudioContent is the obvious one) and make sure you put the Runtime folder from your downloads, such as HER, in that with all its sub-folders intact. In DAZ|Studio go to edit>Preferences, pick the Directories tab, pick Poser directories from the drop-down list at the top, click Add and select the folder you chose - the one with the Runtime folder in it. Now when you OK out of those dialogues and go to the Content palette you should see your chosen folder in the top section, and when you click it you will see library categories (Figures, Poses etc.), within which you will find a collection of folders containing the stuff you installed - double-click a thumbnail in the bottom half of the Content palette to load the item (Figure, Hair and Props are actual things you can load - the other folders are settings that apply to those things).
