    Use DAZ Install Manager to download it all to your HD and then make a copy to another harddrive.

    Of course not (Yes, it could happen) Your online purchases are safe in perpetuity (back them up now) You have nothing to fear. (Do it now before it is too late). :)

    Or make a copy of your Connect installs. Really, we don't know the answer to a question like that - there are just too many variables.

    I have that concern. Especially when I recently tried to install an old daz installer and it would not run. It made me concerned the software would not work if say the store declared bankruptcy.

    how do i make a copy 

     

    I use SyncBack from 2BrightSparks to an external usb drive.Just copy your DIM download directory (if using DIM) or your Connect directory (if using Connect). And at some point it might make sense to have two external drives and alternate between the two (I just lost one of mine this weekend, but it was over 7 years old AND I had two copies. . .)

    Unfortunately it is impossible to do anything but speculate, beyond what has already been said, so this thread has been locked.
