Basic G8M loads with a character shape

I recently added a character shape I acquired from an artist (not from Daz or Rendo) and now every G8M Actor is loading with the shape, including the basic G8M.  How do I fix the morph so it doesn't automatically activate?  I know this has been discussed before, but i can't find the thread.

    Click the gear icon on the slider and select Parameter Settings, chnage the Default Value to 0, use File>Save As>Support Assets>Moprh Asset to save that over the original file (by setting the Author adn product names to match)

    I'd like to as about this in a more detailed way. Because, well, dumdum me.

    1- "save that over the original file" what file are we talking about?

    2- "by setting the Author and product names to match" where do I find this exact information?

     

    Cheers ^^

    To fix any ill-behaving (non-zero default value) morphs, do as follows;

    1. Open DS and load "Genesis 8/8.1 Basic Female/Male" (to an empty scene)
    2. Right Click at Parameters Tab->Preferences->Choose "Show Hidden Properties" (part 3 zeroes only 'visible' dials)
    3. Right Click at Parameters Tab->Zero->Zero Figure (Zeroes the value of all the 'visible' dials)
    4. Right Click at Parameters Tab->Memorize->Memorize Figure (Sets the current value of all the dials as their default value)
    5. Edit->Save As->Support Asset->Save Modified Assets (Writes the changed default value to the morph files that were changed)

    When saving "Modified Assets" DS shows a dialog and asks for confirmation;
    "The following file(s) will be permanently modified:" - "Accept/Cancel" - Choose "Accept

    Same here.  Much Thanks.

    An answer to essentially the same question for the G8.1M figure in a thread on this I started, there was a step missing.

    Anyway, perhaps this can be placed in the FAQ since it seems to be happening a LOT.
