Hi, I just read the Sticky post mentioned above. I have no clue where to look I guess but I can't find any figures in My Library folders mentioned in the post. Not even the Genesis figures that I know are there. Are they hiding the folders somewhere? I'll attach a snip of the path and what I see. thanks! DazMyLib.JPG

Your content will not be found within the Program Files folder. This is a restricted area that Windows has set up to prevent sharing. The 1 location should be under Users>Public>Public Documents, this is where your content should go, and the other should appear under Users>[your name]>Documents>DAZ3D>Studio>My Library. In my case, any content obtained from Renderosity is checked beforehand and unzipped to a different folder called My DAZ 3D Library; this folder was created by DAZ Install Manager and it is how I install content directly from DAZ3D.com.

Actually I found the correct folder . I however watched a video where the guy dragged and dropped into the supposedly correct folders. I looked very carefully and put them in the places I knew for a fact had content in it that shows up but still not working. :-( Someone told me to get a script from here but not sure how to use even if I could find it. So install manager installs the files from here? How do you do that? My install manager won't even recognize files I downloaded from here. Also, It doesn't always install Daz files It downloaded from their site. | Granted the files are older.. more than 12 yrs or more But I use to belong to PC and have tons of products from there and they are their products. Thank you for your reply and any additional advice is deeply appreciated.

DIM (DAZ Install Manager) will only install zip files exclusively from DAZ3D because those files are specially constructed for DIM and follow a particular hierarchy for installation. Rendo does not follow that format.
