I see this is your first post so Hello and welcome to the forums :-)

Thank you for the thoughts but this is not going to work.
When starting out it is a good idea not to encrypt your files.

In D/S - Edit > Preferences ... there you can set your "name" ... "anon" is not generally done.
Under My Library > Runtime > Textures > name your subfolder ... having .png files in Hussein Saafan's Documents folder is fine on your computer, but nobody else's.
After putting the required images in a suitable subfolder, retexture the model using them, then save it out again as a figure/prop, possibly to the location My Library > Props > {your name}
When packaging up the freebie, you need then to copy everything into a set of empty folders using the same structure. This is then put into a .zip folder for sharing.
My Library > Props > {your name or product} .....
My Library > data > husseinsaafan > Laptop > Laptop > laptop.dsf   [without this file the .duf will not work]
My Library > data > husseinsaafan > Laptop > Laptop > UV Sets > etc.
My Library > Runtime > Textures > {your name} ....

And then, people need to have a readme [text file] ... in order to use your model, they want to know if it can be used only for non-commercial projects - if it can be used commercially, etc.

Welcome to the world of 3D modeling :-)

Thanks for the advice, I tried again following it, please let me know if I did anything else wrong.

You seem to have missed out the "textures" folder within the "runtime" folder.

Keep up the good work. The first step is always the hardest!
