Can anyone help out?

    Presumably you chose that as the destination at some point, now you need to choose the correct location - Daz3D/Studio, prsumably, as long as that isn't in Program Files - and the installers should remember it in future.

    You didn't give much info to work with. Are using DIM to install or installing manually? Regardless to that answer the solution is to tell it to install where you want. How to tell it will depend on that answer.

    it SAYS its installing here by default:

    Content Path: C:\Users\RenderBox\Documents/DAZ 3D/Studio/My Library

    However its going to

    Content Path: C:\Users\RenderBox\Documents/DAZ 3D/Studio/My Library/Runtime/Support


    I am manually installing

    Can you explain exactly how you're installing it and what ends up in the Support folder?

    Very strange -- so the Data, Runtime, etc. folders are all under Support?

    But all the stuff in your screen grab is supposed to be there! It installs the metadata at program launch I believe, and the large icons/thumbnails. :)

    Yes, everything in that screenshot is supposed to be there.

    The support directory under your runtime is only for ds meta-data dsx , dsa script, and icon files.

    then you may need to check, where your Freak5 has been insalled by read me.
    it may help you lot. (So that,, DAZ need to offer us read me about all product!! why some read me are wip? ):coolgrin:

    http://docs.daz3d.com/doku.php/public/read_me/index/15333/file_list

    eg you may find two character preset duf files,

    C:\Users\yoursign\Documents/DAZ 3D/Studio/My Library(your ds content directory)
    /people/genesis/characters/Freak 5 super.duf
    or /people/genesis/characters/Freak5.duf

    As you know, read me tell you only the relative path from your ds content library path.
    every installer should be install the files by relative path from your pointed ds content directory.
