You need to place them into the "searches" folder, which *usually* resides here: C:\Program Files\Quick Search Deskbar\searches\ If you intend to 'keep up to date' with the latest and greatest searches and bug-fixes, you may want to add a few of the following to your LocalAliases.txt file, located here: C:\Program Files\Quick Search Deskbar\localaliases.txt '// ======================================================== // DQSD edlp|run notepad.exe "C:\Program Files\Quick Search Deskbar\localprefs.js"|Edit Local Prefs|Edit Local Prefs|Configure edla|run notepad.exe "C:\Program Files\Quick Search Deskbar\localaliases.txt"|Edit Local Aliases|Edit Local Aliases|Configure ed|run notepad.exe "C:\Program Files\Quick Search Deskbar\searches\%s.xml"|Edit search|Edit Search|Configure edl|run notepad.exe "C:\Program Files\Quick Search Deskbar\localsearches\%s.xml"|Edit local search|Edit local search|Configure exps|run explorer /e, "C:\Program Files\Quick Search Deskbar\searches\"|Explore Searches|Explore Search directory|Configure '// ======================================================== Each of those should reside on a single line, then if you reload DQSD (!) they will become active. "exps" will open up a Windows Explorer view of your Searches directory. "ed" will edit a search for you, as so (opens notepad to the Amazon search): ed amaz After you've made any configuration changes - such as editing the localaliases.txt file or adding/removing searches from either the 'searches' or 'localsearches' folders - you need to reload DQSD in order to make your changes active. This is easily done by typing a single exclamation point (!) into DQSD and pressing enter. Regards, Shawn K.
