Need help finding Genesis charaters

Hi. I've used Daz 3 in the past but I'm new to Daz 4 and the Genesis characters. I was having trouble with the Genesis character not loading when I started Daz4. But then I read this thread:
http://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/23101/#342388
and was able to get it to load by changing my preferences.
Problem is now although it loads it gives this error message:

"Some assets needed to load the file were missing. The content may not work as expected. The following files could not be found:
data/DAZ3D/Genesis/Base/Genesis.dsf"

And then what it loads is a block character. :(
I changed my preferences on start up by going to Edit>Prefrences>Startup and browsing to-
C:\Users\Public\Documents\My DAZ 3D Library\People\Genesis\Genesis.duf
Is this not correct?

    Did you download and install the Genesis Starter Essentials from your product library?

    Yes I have. It is installed. When I browsed to C:\Users\Public\Documents\My DAZ 3D Library\People\Genesis\Genesis.duf
    I could see the duf file.

    I could see the duf file.

    It is warning for the dsf file, not the duf file

    Mine is located at

    "C:\Users\Public\Documents\My DAZ 3D Library\data\DAZ 3D\Genesis\Base\Genesis.dsf"

    Did you Change the Content Library paths to the My DAZ 3D Library folder? Like this...

    I don't know what happened. I just went to open Daz and it loaded properly!
    I looked at the paths and it had C:\Users\Public\Documents\My DAZ 3D Library as the path and also
    C:\Users\Valued Customer\Documents\DAZ 3D\Studio\My Library.
    So maybe it was using that second path and I somehow changed that???
    I don't know and If it loads form now on I don't care. LOL
    I'm not sure if I should remove the C:\Users\Valued Customer\Documents\DAZ 3D\Studio\My Library, path or not though.
    But thanks to you all for your help. Hopefully it will work from now on.

    You should keep it and make sure it is the top most listed library, use that library to save all your personal DS files.

    Thanks but what do you mean by personal DS files.
