I seem to have misplaced a shader *SOLVED*

I have no idea what I have messed up this time XD  The Iray Uber Base shader (or shader preset, I'm afraid I'm still not sure of the difference) is saved as a custom action in my Studio, so I know it's in my products somewhere.  But I'm trying to find the actual folder that it is in, because I'm trying to help a friend find it on her computer.  We're both using whatever version of Studio is before this latest update that they just released, the regular one not the beta.  She doesn't have a lot of products yet, so I thought I could guide her to it pretty easily, but it seems to have disappeared.  I tried searching for "uber" but nothing came up.  Does anyone know where to locate it?

    Fae3D In the Content Library, I see it in Shader Presets > Iray > DAZ Uber (It's in that same folder structure in your "My DAZ 3D Library" folder too.)

    You can get the path by finding it in Custom in Window>Workspace>Customise, right-clicking on it, and choosing the edit option.

    THANK YOU oh my goodness, I have been searching everywhere, and now I know what happened:  When I was installing Daz Studio, I installed it to a separate hard drive.  I thought.  But apparently, the stuff that Daz Studio actually comes with free somehow got installed on my main drive.  Thus I couldn't find them without using a totally different directory that I never, ever use.  I bet the same thing happened to her, because I helped her install it.

    Let my blunders be a lesson - if you can't find something, check EVERY SINGLE DIRECTORY, even if you aren't even sure what they connect to LOL!

    Thanks again, SapphireBlue and Richard Haseltine!
