You should not be surprised that you face problems in setting up pretty complex software ;) especially if you think about long term and do it not very standard way ;)

so my recommendation will be to use default inhalation first and leave everything in the default folder "C:\Users\<account>\Documents\DAZ 3D\Studio\My Library" and put your stuff there because you can move it anywhere later
That way you at least will not that demotivated by few small problems ;)
But still, do not expect everything to go smoothly on either software.
Daz allows you to add as many content folders as you like you can set them in
Edit-preferences-content-content directory manager
Ideally, you should create different folders for power and Daz content to have less mess.
poser content is when you only have "runtime" folder and Daz content is when you have more than just runtime folder or no runtime folder.

I am not sure why Daz uses that "DAZ PostgreSQL CMS" for but looks like not absolutely necessary and can be turned off As I understand it is somehow related to "smart content" function which you probably will not use.

>It's because I'd rather learn how to use Blender than DAZ3D, but if I can use DAZ to generate the models/clothes/scenes in an easy way that would be great.
You are kinda thinking backward because you are supposed to use Blender for modeling and daz for posing those models, not the opposite. Importing stuff into Blender to pose it makes almost no sense. But I think you will eventually notice it yourself.
It is quite a stupid idea to think that you will save time by using only one program because you will need a lot of them and if you know how to use one you sort of know how to use them all

like for example here is what I use:

Daz for posing
Poser for converting binary pmd fines into daz
Zbrush to edit geometry and make morphs
Clip studio to add text
Photoshop to edit textures
CrazyBump to create normal and bump maps


Yes, 3d-load died just now for some reason. I hope it will come back because it happened several times already.


Also speaking about techniques, I think you should first finish installing your software and then we can think about wahst to do next
I don't know if you have 8GB Nvidia card, but if not, You will face a very big demotivation soon :)
and even more, demotivation if you will try to render a Scene with 3delight
So I want to calm you down that it is not that bad as it may look like ;)
