Yet another question about Encrypted Files

JOdelJOdel Posts: 6,316

And really, for me it's the main question.

Once encrypted files have been downloaded and installed in the designated library (secondary question; can you designate a specific library?), *Can They Be Moved?*

Can you manually put them somewhere else? Will they still work? Will they effectively be decompressed and work like all the rest of your files?

I don't care if moving them breaks the links to smart content. I have never seen what is supposedly so smart about smart content. Can you still use the content if you move it?

Because I see far too many reports about glitchy path errors in products purchased not to have to ask whether the files *have* to be left wherever the packers direct them. Not to mention that I want to manually install *everything* before I use it. I don't mind it it is encrypted for the transfer from the store to me. But once I have custody of the files that I paid someone for the use of, I want to be the one in control of where they go.

Will this still be possible?

    You can designate where Daz Connect files should be installed, it's a new option i  the Content Directory Manager.  The default is "My Daz Connect Library".  I'm not sure if this feature is in the release or is still under development, but for Daz Connect content you can create links in your regular content folders that can be reorganized however you like.

    The feature to organize your Daz Connect downloaded files is in this release.

    All you have to do is open smart content and the content library up in two panes and then you can drag items from smart content and drop them in to your content library. This will create link files in your content library that can be moved and sorted in any way you want. Additionally since these link files are very small and just reference the files they are pointing to it would not take up very much space to have many copies of those links spread through your content library.
