DazCentral downloading files to external HDD

Hello!
With DIM I was able to download and update all installation files and figures on my external HDD. Is this also possible with the new "DazCentral"?
PS: Those are installation files as a backup and not installed files for usage. I just want to avoid downloading everything all over again. I already have like 144 GB in my DIM install folder which gets recognized.
Saludos
Patrick

You can change your content path in you Daz Central's preferences.
Word of caution tho. You use either DIM or Daz Central. Not both of them together. If you've already used DIM for you initial installs and current content, just stick with DIM. Using both can cause many issues.
Daz created Daz Central to make it easier for newer users to install apps and content. Daz Central is supposed to be an easier version of DIM, however, Daz failed to synch Daz Central with DIM, so existing users of DIM can't transition into using Daz Central (yet, soon?).
If you still choose to use Daz Central, I would recommend to unistall everything thru DIM (apps and content) and do a clean install thru Daz Central.
Thank you!
So is content path just the files that I downloaded for installation?
The content I want to install on C:, the downloaded files which are ready for DIM or DazCentral on E:.
The Content path is the Library you use in Studio, where everything is installed. You need to make sure that DIM and Studio are looking in the same place.
The downloads go to the Package Archive folder. Look in DIM Advanced Settings to see where everthing is going.
