Quote - On the installer I clicked the option to backup my current preferences. Does anyone know where those preferences get backed up?

It varies by OS and sometimes users (accidentally) force it to be somewhere unusual.
To be certain where yours are, launch Poser 8. Use the menu item Scirpts/Python Shell. This brings up an interactive Python interpreter.
Type this and press enter: print poser.PrefsLocation()
You cannot paste it - you must type it.
It will display the folder where preferences are kept.
I'm not certain of the backup location, but its either a folder inside the above-displayed preferences folder, or it's beside it. Look for something with the word "backup" in its name.
Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
