Poser content not visible after installing Carrara 8.5 Pro

I installed Carrara 8.5 Pro. When prompted I clicked on OK to search for my installed runtimes/content. The Daz Studio content was found and displays just fine in the Content tab. There is also a Runtime choice in the Content tab which appears to be the Poser runtime folder. When expanded it displays Geometries, heads, Libraries, LipSync, Python, Readme, Reflection Maps and Textures. Expanding and looking within these I get no images in the main display area. Anybody have a suggestion?

I do not have this problem with C8, I suggest you importing the Poser file complete (see my screenshot).
That it is displaying Libraries, Geometry, etc. tells me something isn't quite right. Poser runtimes should display in the Content Browser by category, such as Figure, Faces, Hands, Poses, etc. It almost looks as if it is reading the top level for whatever reason. Can you use the little black icon at the far right of the browser window to manually navigate to a runtime and load it to see if it also behaves like the automatically loaded runtimes?
Just a note, that some things have dramatically changed with C8.5, but as far as I have read, to use DAZ Studio files in Carrara still requires an import, such as .duf, so the only thing you should be adding to the Content Browser that will show up and load as expected are Poser runtimes.
I removed the folder from the list then added it manually per your suggestion. The icons for loading the models are now displayed. Thanks for your help. Greatly appreciate it.

Glad I could help! Not sure why it showed up the way it did.
