How to install My Daz Connect Library to D: disk

in Technical Help (nuts n bolts)

More times I have installed DAZ Studio 4.9 (64bit) on my D: disk (1 TB) because I want more space for my contents and during installation I have selected for Contents - D: disk but "My Daz Connect Library" every time was installed on C: disk (SSD 120 GB) and my DAZ Install Manager also put contents in "My Daz Connect Library" on C/Documents/My Daz Connect Library. How to change this content path i.e. "My Daz Connect Library" to D: disk for DAZ Studio 4.9 (64bit) and for DAZ Install Manager?

    Just to clarify. It's a my new computer and new installation.

    Here is the Daz Connect FAQ. Take a look at the last entry in particular.

    Here is the Daz documentation on configuring the Daz Install Manager.

    Here is Daz documentation on configuring the Daz Content Directory Manager.

    You need to do all three things to configure your new computer for installation and use of content installed by Daz Connect and the Daz Install Manager.

    Thanks barbult

    I think I did it right for Daz Install Manager.

    But I am not shure for Content Directory Manager and for Content Tab. How to do it? With right click with mouse on and what to do next (see the image please).

    First, I copy/paste My Daz Connect Library to D: disk and I did it like this (see image). Is it OK?

    That is not quite right. The Daz Connect Data should have the location of the "data/cloud" directory on your hard disc where Daz Connect will install items. The Daz Studio Formats, Poser Formats and Other Formats should have the location where Daz Install Manager installs products. The Daz Connect location should not be the same as the Daz Install Manager location (as far as I know).

    Mine looks like this:

    The actual Daz Connect folder looks like this:

    My Daz Install Manager configuration looks like this. You can see that I have it configured to install to the path that the Content Directory Manager has assigned to Daz Studio Formats and Poser Formats.

    Have you ever installed anything from INSIDE Daz Studio using Daz Commect? Or have you so far only installed things with Daz Install Manager?

    Thank you very much barbult

    I have configured paths and folders exactly according to your instructions. I hope it will be all right now. If I have any further question I will be open to ask you for advice. Kind regards, Niki
