Quote - just a little note.................. you do not need a 'poser.exe' file anywhere to get the installers to work.

just use 'daz studio' as the target app in the dropdown menu on the splash screens.

then you can install anywhere. just point the installer to the folder you want to instal too. ie  'any drive' :users:'poser stuff':V4.

the only proviso being that a file with dependancies should go to the same folder as its parent.

ie  'morphs++' should be installed to the same folder as V4, and any characters that use EXP should as well.

the only things that need to be installed to Poser's own runtime are python scripts or certain light sets that rely on python to work( afaik).

ever since Vista, it has paid to install Poser and similar apps that use content outside of the Programs folder. either on a separate drive, partition or at the root of 'C'.

also , for sanity's sake, have the runtimes ( your own) on a separate drive, where possible.

basically because once you get to having large amounts of content installed, having to reinstall everything when/if the system drive fails gets tedious very quickly.

also, as a newbie you should get into the habit of backing up your installers and content .zips externally.

 

Ok. So what I would do is use Daz as the download, then select the path would be something like:

cusersbobposerfilesv4

 

I can try that. Hopefully something will work lol.
