Where is one supposed to put the ready-made "actions" (*.atn) files one can find from various third-party sources in order to make them available in the program?

On Mac OSX, with Photoshop 7, they reside in the photoshop app folder\Presets\Photoshop Actions\.

Thanks. Of course, I'm using WinXP, and I can't find any folder which looks anything like that. Plug-ins go in a folder named "Plugins", so in my naivete I would expect there to be a folder named "Actions" or something similar, but, no . . .

Have you tried searching the drive for *.atn files,


Second thing I tried. (First one being looking for a folder whose name suggested that it was the proper place, as I already mentioned. Third one being looking under "actions" in the apparently-misnamed "help" file and reading the "read me" files on the installation disc, all of which told me plenty about what actions are used for and how to record one of my own, but nothing I could find about where they should be located so the program can find them. The fourth thing I tried was asking the list . . . )


or are they *all* missing?


Interestingly, when I start Photoshop, there are several items listed on the "Actions" tab, presumably installed as part of the default installation. But no *.atn files show up anywhere either in the "Photoshop" folder or any of its subfolders or indeed on the whole drive.
