Moving to new computer, how do I move my Daz content?

Old and new computers Windows 10

Can I just copy the folder with the content?

Is there a link to an official Daz page?

Thanks

    You can copy the content directories, and point the new DS to their location. You can also move the Content Management System over (as long as the database engine is the same bit-architecture - 32 bit or 64 bit) - it's location is given in Edit>Preferences>CMS Settings tab, but make sure DS, DIM, and Carrara are closed when you try copying or pasting it.

    Can I install from scratch DS on the new computer, install an item or 2 from the store, and then copy to that location?

    Just clarifying

    Not if you want to copy the old database entries and keep the new, but the files themselves would be OK and you could always reimport their metadata if they were a DIM install.
