    Open Install Manager again, go to installed products, and find The Protohive. Click on the little "I" info icon to the right of the product name to get more info on the item, including where you can find it in your content directory :)

    You can find it without loading the Wiki page. Also in DIM, right click the product in your Installed tab and choose Show Installed Files. Then just follow the breadcrumbs to see where it's at.

    That didn`t help, I have absolutely no clue where it is.

    It should. The top of the window that pops up will tell you what library it's in, then look at the paths themselves to find where in the runtime exactly it is.

    Well, the product page says it's .pp2 format prop, so it's going to be in the Poser Runtime / Props folder somewhere.

    Go to Products in Content Library. It's there in the Ps. I just checked.

    Anytime you can't find something or want to find it fast, Products can be your go-to.  wink

    It's in Content>Libraries>Pose

    So Content Library:

    Poser Format>Daz>Pose>Protohive

    Sorry, didn't mean for that last post to sound rude... just had to run away quickly to check something. Found this:

    Notes from the artist: 

    • You can find new icons for loading this product in the following Poser Libraries:
      • Light: "Protohive"
      • Pose: "Protohive"
      • Props: "Protohive"

    Are you sure all parts of the product installed? When it came in .exe installer format, it was split up into something like 8 separate installers. Almost a 400mb product.

    I have installed it via dim because it was listed in DIM just as one file
