Anywhere I can download DAZ 4.16?

I actually have it on my secondary SSD, but to play safe I'd like to download the ZIP package if possible just in case the SSD dies. If there's no link, is there a true and tested way to make a backup of the program? I'm not sure how to go about it since on installation the files get installed to many locations apart from the Program Files directory.

    @RobertDy I believe you can put in a request with Daz Customer Service to have the file be re-added back to your Product Library. You can open a new help ticket here: https://helpdaz.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

  • If they do, let us know because I've never heard of them doing that.

    copy the working folder off your SSD on to another drive or a usb stick.. 
    I have them going back at least to 4.8 on back up drives.
    giving credit where its due the program allows you to back to mulitple drives and run it. 
    always copy the installer from your install folder before downloading the new one and copy your main daz folder to another drive so you'll have it when the new install overwrites it.

    I have a 100g a month download limit and my downloaded install folder is 1.2 TB with 25k files.
    It would take me a year to replace them if i lost the data.. and yep it's on at least 3 drives
    so save your daz like you would any other valuble info.
