Quote - The simplest way to make an external runtime folder is to:
Make sure you're viewing your Desktop.
Right click on an open space in your desktop.
Choose: New Folder from the menu that appears.
Rename the new folder and call it, Runtime
You are now done creating an external runtime folder.
I've made a video illustrating the process:
Now, are you new to using computers? I ask, because your knowledge of the computer you are using seems limited at best. This will complicate helping you, as many people here assume some prior knowledge of computers is possessed when attempting to install software and other items to a computer yourself. If you are new to computers and find some or all of the explanations provided difficult, you may wish to consider seeking the help of someone you know who is familiar with modern technology and can show you the steps we've outlined.
As I said, many people here assume you have some working knowledge of computers. They don't know you and can only go by what you're telling them. So please be as detailed in explanation of what you're attempting and the results you are getting as possible. Otherwise, you will find those helping you will become agitated or worse, give you information that is unrelated to your problem becuase you did not explain it fully.
I followed your procedures of creating a Runtime folder on my desktop and everything went well until the Victoria 4 image came up on Poser. The only problem, as far as I can see, is that my image of Victoria 4 doesn't look like your image does. The flesh tone isn't there... the mesh underwear isn't there... nor is the short hair or eyes. I'm not sure what didn't happen correctly, but it didn't turn out the way yours did. Other than that, following your procedures did work as far as creating an external Runtime on my desktop.
