how do install extra content

In the past I downloaded many (over 1,000) Free items from DAZ when they would offer free things each week.  About 800 installed from the DAZ install Manager, but the other 200 or so have not.  They are in the form of .exe files - for example - ps_fr256_baby2006.exe and ps_fr256_baby2006T.exe.  When I run these, they don't seem to do anything, but it asked where I should put them and I am not sure where they should go.  Any ideas how to get these files installed?  the reason they were not installed earlier is that I did not load DAZ immediately back then, but have now decided to start trying to use it now. by the way, they seem to be old files that are no longer available on line.

Thanks for any help you can give me.

    this is an executable ZIP - so basically, you'd create a folder where you can expand them, and you could then move them to your content folder, or create an additional content directory.

    The ones ending in T are templates, so they aren't needed to use the item. With the older installers they won't run on modern Macs and on Windows you needed, at least a while back, to cancel the search for installed content or all such installers would hang until Windows was restarted.
