Many thanks for all your replies. In answer to some of your questions.

The Poser Pro 2014 .exe file disappears completley from the Poser folder.However the runtime stays.

The shortcut stops working when after I close DAZ Studio down and try to open Poser.

I have separate runtimes for both Poser and DAZ.

The Poser shortcut is pointing to the .exe program in C: Program files/SmithMicro/PoserPro2014. Runtime is on same drive.

Daz Studio Advanced Pro was on a separate removeable 1 terrabyte hardrive.However the Content Manager at the time was on my C:Drive.

I have checked that that there isn't any errors on the Poser Drive.

I do use AVG free antivirus and a paid version of AVG PC Tune up.However I have been running this system for years without trouble.

Windows installed about 27 updates recently.I doubt if this would be the problem.

Finally I have uninstalled all DAZ Programs,Content Manager and Install Manager.

I have reinstalled DAZ Studio Pro,And I still get the same result.

DAZ have replied and pointed me to their help desk.But this is all about installing DAZ products. 

I am at lost to know what is happening! Cheers
