Only thing it brings to mind is a few comments I've seen posted that involved a LOT of library folders. Seems Poser has a limit to how many Library folders it is capable of opening, starting from the lowest alphanumerically sorted folder. How many library folders do you have under Poses? Can you open any folders below the problem one? (Not sure what the number quoted was, but I think it was over 200).

I've run into that myself. That was my inspiration to uninstal Poser, then reinstall with a lot less items.

One or two more possible suggestions (if that's the problem). Go through the folders in Windows explorer (or whatever file manager you prefer - I like PowerDesk, myself) and consolidate down the folders into whatever organization seems most logical to you. Rename the folders so that Poser will display them in a more logical order for your use. I go through & prefix the most commonly used folders with a number, Like 1-MicBorisMAT, or 0-MilKidsPlay, etc. If you still have so many that you exceed poser's access limit, consider either copying the least-used folders out into a holding folder elswhere or (this is what I do) take the LEAST-used folders & prefix them with a Z- character. Like Z-ProPakCharPoses, or Z-AnimalAnimations. You can always rename them again for projects you need them.
