Quote - The last time I mentioned this I was thoroughly shot down, but I have never EVER installed Poser to C:Program Files. I have installed Poser directly into the C drive in its own folder and have no problems. I also unzip my content inside of my Downloads folder and hand install everything into Poser, changing folder names if I have to so that it fits into my own type of organization. I never EVER unzip anything directly into Poser. Yes, it's more time consumming, but you learn Poser's file structure this way and you know exactly where your purchases are and have no problems with Window's new security precautions regarding the Program Files folder.

All of my project files, regardless of program, are on a seperate partition of the hard drive and all zips are unzipped in dedicated folders in my Downloads folder, then manually placed where they go. Too many times I would try to unzip, say, a hair item, and it would want to replace my entire Runtime with its own just to install the hair.
Besides, in theory, if I put it somewhere, I should remember where it went. I write it all down, though, since each main subject (Victoria, Animals, Locations) has their own Runtime and some products - let's use hair again - are made for more than one figure.
Basicwiz has a thread or three around here somewhere about how he organizes his truck load of stuff. I need to go check those out myself . . .
