I am using Poser 10 I am using runtimedna and rendosity products, I am able to unzip the products into poser 10 without a problem. I am doing each product I brought one at time into my poser 10.
So DAZ products are using zip program for their products, like what I done with runtimedna and rendosity products and place DAZ products the same folder with other the unzip products in my poser 10. So I go look into that folder in poser 10 I can't find the DAZ products. So what am I doing wrong? The products that have the old DAZ installers is the only way for me install DAZ products into poser 10

    If you look at the zip files from DAZ, you will see that they all start with a folder named Content and then go down from there. The easiest way around this for the future is to unzip and repack the zip. It is done the way it is for complaiance with the download install manager.

    Which products are you trying to unzip?

    Those products that are DSON require you to have the DSON importer installed, the DSON files and the Poser Companion Files installed.

    I found it is best to unzip the new DAZ zips to a temporary folder and sort out what files I want where and manually move them to the runtimes and/or folders I want them installed to.

    Since you are unzipping manually, are you downloading the zip or installer that is for manually download and installation? This can be different from the DIM zip that is designed to be for auto download and can be set to auto install the zips.

    One of the biggest differences between DAZ zips and those you receive for Poser products from RDNA and Rendo is that the runtime folder may be inside a folder labelled Content.

    Locate the Poser runtime folder you have been unzipping to. Open it up and look to see if there is a folder labelled Content. Open up this folder and see if the runtime folder is inside.

    I check a zip of the older MilDragon LE. When I open the zip there is the DIM code (at least I think that's what it is) and a folder labelled Content. Inside the folder is the Read me folder and the runtime folder.

    If you find the content folder, you can move the runtime folder you find inside to the your Poser runtime folder.

    Mind you, the MilDragon LE is an old product that pre-dates DS so newer products may have more than just the two folders I listed.

    Thank you all helping me with my problem With both of you helping me I looked in content I found all the programs I that un ziped
    Instead using ideas repackaging the products what I did since all daz programs going into content so I open a content folder in poser 10. Then run what in content folder in poser 10 and so far it works
    The reason I did this I have over hundred products from DAZ to be repackaging that be will little long
