This may or may not be helpful. I have two drives on my system C: and E:. My system and programs reside on C:. I never store data on my C: drive in my profile. All of my data resides on E:. This makes backups and system re-loads simpler.
On E:, I have a directory called "E:\DAZStudio\DS4Content" which is where I install content from DAZ, Renderosity, ShareCG, etc. After setting up your content directory, you need to "tell" DS about it using the "Edit-Preferences" menu selection (see attached).
When you download a .zip or .rar content from Renderosity or ShareCG, unzip it into a temporary directory, then navigate down the tree until you see content folders like data, People, Runtime. etc. Move these folder to your content directory (in my case "E:\DAZStudio\DS4Content").
I have DAZ Central setup to download my content purchases to a temporary directory. After downloading, I move the content to "E:\DAZStudio\DS4Content". Setting this up has become quite complicated. It used to be very simple a couple of years ago.
