Some kind of rights issue, maybe?

Please elaborate.

I've occasionally had issues with Windows 10's super aggressive security. You can no longer have a runtime where Poser's main runtime used to be (in Program Files) without massive headaches.

Even when you have an external runtime, there can be problems. I think that was the problem I had. I kept getting "access denied" error messages. Even though my runtimes, including the default runtime, are all on an external drive. I'd try again, and it would work, but it was a pain. This problem appears to have been fixed with the reinstall. (Of Poser, not of the runtimes.)

For awhile, I also had to run Poser as administrator to get it to work right, though I haven't had that problem recently.

Sometimes I really miss Windows XP.

Another thing I've occasionally had issues with was where the temp files were. I don't know if it's a rights issue, a space issue, or just a speed thing, but I've found Poser runs a lot faster with the temp files on some drives than on others.

In my case, I'e instructed the antivirus (eset internet security) and malwarebytes to forget any folders related to 3D, that means the poser runtimes (both version), the galleries and my 3d-related library, such as hdri's and so one. All this has always been put on a specific drive (a fast sata drive). with one exclusive partition.
