I have followed the directions for exporting and importing and getting the "ok" dialogue on all four autocorrect categories, but they are not showing up in auto correct file in word. The original autocorrects that came with Word 21 are the only ones showing up.

Hi,
I made export of two .xml files using: Kutools Plus->Export/Import->Auto Correct->Export (MathAutoCorrect.xml and MathFunctionAutoCorrect.xml).
When I try to import them (into another user environment) those files are not visible for import.

Hopefully you can help me over here..

I need to transfer AutoCorrect from Word 2010 to Word 2013. Before buying Kutools I was able to transfer the lists from one PC to another, but am having the same problem as above - the PC running Word 2013 doesn't read the export file.

Hi there I've installed the product and saved my autocorrect entries in word format over to the new computer. However when I go to Enterprise and click import and go to the folder, the program can't see the file. I've tried renaming it Normal.bak and that doesn't work either. What am i missing please? Thanks Rebecca

This download does not work. When I open the folder where my .act files are located after clicking import, it shows nothing in the folder in Kutools, although the files are in that particular folder in my computer.
