Well goofy that is good news. You may run into a few difficulties when loading certain products (Pop ups saying it can't locate the "file name" usually .jpg extention.) Main thing is that you had not deleted all your content and as you know that would be a massive download. I wouldn't mind using the DIM to set right my entire library from that particular store but I would have no chance retracing my footsteps from all the other sites. There would not be enough hours in the day...or month

this one here sounds about right ( userspublicpublic documents daz 3d) if on C: unless you wanted it elsewhere LOL. If you were to follow instructions above and point your DIM to that then you would be really getting somewhere.

C:/Users/Public/PublicDocuments/Daz 3D This one here is where Daz unzips your purchases and updates from the store. This will not be your data from Rendo or any other site but very good start IMO as if you moved the folder then chances are it is all lurking around that general area.

Where you located this there should be one more folder further down C:/Users/Public/PublicDocuments/Daz 3D - Install manager handles this

C:/Users/Public/PublicDocuments/My Daz 3D Library - This is where a lot of your store stuff gets installed to again DIM handles this for the majority

Sometime Daz help or a manual download from Daz site you will be instructed to unzip into the top one. morphs etc are vital to go there

C:UsersComputerNameDocumentsDAZ 3DStudioMy Library - This is your playground. When you buy something outside of Daz you unzip it here.

if you can get it set now that you have noted finding two of these already to all be in order you will be back to rendering by christmas :-)

First pic shows the two folders in C>User I highlighted the one you have not mentioned

The second pic this folder should be easily located in you regular 'Documents" folder from your desktop this is as described above Goofy's playground.

Excellent progress just the same.
