So I may have done the stupidest thing ever. I have a custom runtime setup, which is just fine... however, my computer crashed, losing my current runtime folder paths. So now when i try to load my DAZ scene files it asks to find the right directory... my problem is, I don't exactly remember the exact order they were in. ( was it aiko then david folders...etc?) So what i'm wondering IS, there a way to find out what the old runtime path was (is it embedded in the file somewhere) or should i just reload all the content it searches for and start a new runtime?
Thanks!

Order doesn't matter - as long as the content iss till there, selecting the folders that hold the Runtime folders as Poser content directories, the fodlers that contain the data folder(s) as DAZ Studio content directories should be all that's needed. You do still have the data folder from the Content folder, don't you? If not you will have to recreate it by loading the Poser versions of your porps and figures, injecting the morphs, and saving as a scene file (no need to pose, apply textures, set morphs or setup cameras and lights, fortunately, just save as a new scene and the data folder will be rebuilt so that you can open your old scenes).

Hm I don't think i do have the content folder since I lost everything... but, I will just go through and reload everything. Thanks!
