You will need to define an installation path for your applications in the DAZ Install Manager (DIM).
To do this, please follow these steps:
1) Open DIM and log in.
2) Click on the gear icon in the top right corner.
3) Click on the Applications tab and you will see "Name" and "Path".
4) Click on the "+" at the bottom left of the screen, choose the applications name, version and bit; click the "..." button and browse to the installation path of your application and click "Accept".
PLEASE NOTE: If you do not choose the Name of the application from the drop down, when adding your new path, it will show "Daz Studio" and will not work.
Depending on the plugin or application you are installing, the application path will vary. Here are the default paths for Windows and Mac.
