I have created several actions in CS that I want to copy and use on a different computer, but I can’t find my created actions in Windows Explorer. They are not in the Presets/Photoshop actions folder. How can I find these actions to copy?

Did you Save them? If not they are only stored in a preferences file, Actions Palette.psp I believe. That probably won’t do you much good. You should put them in a set and Save from the flyout arrow on the Actions palette. Then you can transport them.

A good place to save them is in the Photoshop Actions folder in the Presets folder in Programs>Adobe>Photoshop CS, but you can actually save them anywhere and making a backup copy might be a good idea as well.
