Where'd My Products Go? [Solved ...Mostly]

I just downloaded the new beta and it says my products "don't exist". My product files look like this:

And when I double click on them it says: "Could not open file : file does not exist".

How do I get my products to show up?

Edit - Never mind. I figured it out (I think). I went to Content Library >> Content Directory Manager and then had to manually point Daz at where I have the content saved.

I still have some files missing, so I might have some saved where I don't know about. Oy... lol

    Do you use the 3 staderd standard D/S librarys (My Library, My DAZ Library and Connect) or did you set up some of your own?

    Yeah, I have like three locations because I filled up my tiny C drive, then I have another slightly less tiny drive that I also filled up. So I have Daz content across three different drives. lol

    I managed to figure out how to tell Daz where to find some of it. But I'm still missing some files.

    OK, sorry that's all I can think off at present.

    It's ok. I found most of the files, so I'm not going to sweat it too much at the moment. :) Thankfully it looks like installing the beta didn't whipe out the previous version of Daz that I had. So at least all my flies are intact in one version. :)

    The Public Build and the General Release do not share settings. Run the script @ http://docs.daz3d.com/doku.php/public/software/dazstudio/4/referenceguide/scripting/api_reference/samples/file_io/save_mapped_paths/start in the General Release to generate a script that you can then run in the Public Build to make both have the same paths mapped.

    I was having this same problem with DIM for the past 10-14 days. I solved it tonight by opening the Ready to Download tab on DIM and removing the check/tick on the Install After Download box at the bottom. Then I downloaded my files (Start Queue). Next, I went to the Ready to Install tab and selected all the files I wanted to install and clicked Start Queue. After that, my files showed up properly in the Products tab.

    Oh nice! Thank you, Cris! :)

    I'll try this if the script that Cris linked doesn't solve the issue. Thanks, xyer0. :)
