    In previous versions of Notepad++, it was possible to edit user-defined macros in the shortcuts.xml file. In the more-recent versions, including 4.6, to which I've just upgraded, I don't see any of my macros in shortcuts.xml (although the built-in "Trim trailing and save" macro is there). The macros I've created are still on the Macro menu, and they still execute properly, so I know they exist somewhere. Where are they stored in version 4.6?

      In the %APPDATA% folder?

        Ah! I see ... I was looking in the Notepad++ folder in Program Files, not in Application Data. The shortcuts.xml in Application Data has all my user-created macros.

        Thanks!
