I'm interested in the product, 25 Cat Poses for Mil Cat from DAZ, which is sold in the Renderosity marketplace? I'm new to using DAZ Studio. How would I install in DAZ Studio "25 Cat Poses for Mil Cat from DAZ"?

Just unzip it to
Depending on what drive and where you installed DAZ
Most common :
C:Program FilesDAZStudiocontent

Then in DAZ you will find the poses in the contentposeCG Cat Poses  directory

Hi, all

I've just purchased two items from the Renderosity store and I'm having a few problems installing them. When I attempt to extract to my Daz Content folder, I receive a range of error messages, usually "the system cannot find the path specified". I'm having this problem with the freebies as well, which would indicate that I'm doing something wrong and to be honest, I'm starting to get a wee bit annoyed at this so any help you guys can give me will be greatly appreciated.

What is giving you the erro messages - DS or the operating system? What are you on, Mac or Windows? How are you unzipping?

I'm using a laptop with Vista (but my desktop- and main workstation- is XP), and it is the operating system that is giving the messages. I extract into C:program file/DAZ/Studio/Content and when I do, winrar says that "the system cannot find the path specified". The message comes up in a pop-up and I get it for every file in each zip.  I've tried copying-and-pasting into the correct files but it still doesn't work.

As I said in my reply to your post at DAZ, I suspect this is Vista being protective. A short-term fix may be to run WinRar as administrator, but a better solution might be to set up a content folder outside your program files folder or simply to reinstall DS outside the Program Files folder
