I suggest you enable logging in the program menu and check the log file.

 
The log file (..\Cakewalk ContentRapture Pro\Logs\...) should look something like this:
 
08:34:44 [ -------- ] setting up logger
08:34:44 [ Start Up ] initializing paths...
08:34:44 [ Start Up ] Plug-in Path = "G:\VST-64\Cakewalk\Rapture Pro\"
08:34:44 [ Start Up ] Resource Path = "C:\Program Files\Cakewalk\Rapture Pro\Resources\"
08:34:44 [ Start Up ] Sample Data Dir = "K:\Cakewalk\Rapture Pro\Rapture Pro\"
08:34:44 [ Start Up ] UserData Path = "K:\Cakewalk Content\Rapture Pro\"
08:34:44 [ Start Up ] Rap Multisamples Path = "K:\Cakewalk\Rapture\Content\"
08:34:44 [ Start Up ] Dim Multisamples Path = "K:\Cakewalk\Dimension Pro\"
08:34:44 [ *silence ] reading .sfz file...
08:34:44 [ *silence ] loading *silence
08:34:44 [ *silence ] reading .sfz file...
08:34:44 [ *silence ] loading *silence
08:34:44 [ *silence ] reading .sfz file...
08:34:44 [ *silence ] loading *silence
08:34:44 [ K:\Cakewalk Content\Rapture Pro\Programs\Default Program.prog ] Loading Program
 
etc.

Seconded (with scook) Gary ...
 
My Multisamples count is the same and your structures are correct.
 
Re Programs - legacy directory sizings may be different 'cause we'll have purchased different expansion packs ... but the Factory content sizing should be the same ...
Rapture Pro      - 2.76MB, 861 Files, 20 Folders
Dimension Pro    - 18.1 MB, 2269 Files, 20 Folders
Rapture          - 30.2 MB, 1308 Files, 20 Folders
(the 20 folders are the same 20 instrument 'types')

Thanks guys,
 
Sheelstax, I have the exact same so I guess I have a full install.
Arachnaut, I enabled logging and inspected it - all seems fine.
 
I guess everything is working as it should, but there's still no way to identify which samples/progs belong to a pack and it seems no available lists of pack contents to check agains. Maybe I'm wrong there?
 
I still think it would have been better to see the packs installed and identified rather than a 'blind' merge which communicates a very large feedback void!
 
Anyhow, thank for all your help -
 
Kindest regards

I think this is one if the areas of Rap Pro that is missing. Sample management. After install I should be able to go into settings and see what sample pack I've installed. Much like the Addictive drums installer...

Well - to perhaps have a choice to arrange by pack too. Legacy 3rd party / expansion packs are split to directory - so are identifiable. But things like Gold Tops and Pianet are not (assume Guitars / EPianos resp) - we'd have to look into the installer (with 7zip for now). I'd assume 'pack' could be a simple tag to the .prog if it's not there already. But we do have a search now (still won't necessarily assist with what's in a 'pack').
 
I'm still hoping that the Browser will get a decent overhaul in an update.
( I actually prefer the old expandable/collapsable tree / resizable format) 
- I have little interest in reverse alphabetical ordering of bank and type.
- I'd like to see Banks movable (by mouse drag) to where I want them.
- I'd like to see 'favorites' rather than, or in addition to, most/least used.
 
 
FWIW e.g, 
PianetT Pack contains/is used in:
Atmospheric:
   Trail of Doom2JAL.prog
Electric Guitars:
   Guitarmosphere.prog
Electric Pianos:
   Delicate Pianet FS.prog
   Mellow EP 1.prog
   Soft EP 2.prog
   Soft EP.prog
Pianos:
   Prepared Piano 1.prog
