Okay I still have the previous file of Daz so what should I do if I want to downgrade from 4.9.3 to 4.9.1? Should I just unintsall the latest version using DIM? then install the previous version manually? Won't it corrupt the "My Daz 3D LIbrary"? I don't have plugins though just scripts but they are all in the My Daz 3D Library. Also after I successfully install the previous version of Daz, will it already automatically locate the "My Daz 3d Library"? Or shuld I still set it up manually? If so how?

    ..if you created scenes in the newer version you will not be able to open them in an older version.

    Is that still true with .duf files? I thought part of the reason they moved to duf was to remove that problem....

    ..you can go from an older release  to a newer version of the programme but not back the other way. This is why when I perform parallel tests of scenes in a beta I save a copy of the scene with the beta number attached to the title.  That way I can still open the original scene in the stable release.

    .duf files are backwards compatible, though if they contain features not in the older version they may not open entirely correctly.

    Thanks Richard, that's what I thought.

    You can uninstall the latest version using DIM.

    If you saved the DIM files of the previous release you can throw those into the DIM downloads folder and install it with DIM.
