Backup custom categories

in Technical Help (nuts n bolts)

I did Content DB Maintenance > Export User Data. I assume this will contain custom categories.

But where is the file this creates (I kinda want to copy it to google drive)? Maybe there's a simple post somewhere that explains how to back up your categories...

    It is called userdata and it is usually in I believe your runtime> support directory. There may be more than one depending on how big your content custom categories are

    This will be in runtime/support as UserData_n.dsx (where 'n' starts at 1; depending on the amount of userdata you can end up with multple files) in the first Studio format directory defined to Studio (Content tab -> options menu -> Content Directory Maintenance; expand DAZ Studio Formats)

    It will be in your first content directory, under \Runtime\Support.

    This wasn't easy to find, but it was worth the effort. I've lost my categories for the last time.
