CMS User Data Export/Import Questions

I have had trouble in the past with Content Manager crashing and having to delete/redo my categories. If I export my user data on a regular basis ( i.e. after I add something new ) where does the file go? I can't find the directory or file. I would also like to know how to restore the saved file once I've deleted the crashed database. Any help will be greatly appreciated because I use the Categories to organize a lot of stuff.

    The exported user data is written to the Runtime\Support folder in your first DAZ Studio content directory - by default My DAZ 3d library or My Library as the case may be. The folder will also contain the metadata files for the rest of your installed content.

    To restore them after deleting a corrupt database use "Re-Import Metadata".

    Thanks for the quick reply. I did a test and tried your advice and it worked great! This is going to save me a lot of time, headaches and swearing at my computer in the future!
