So I am wondering where do you create save filters. Once I click ok my new filters do not seem to be save.

Do you get any warnings when you start Newsbin?

- In the options select "Open Data Folder"

- Then exit Newsbin.

- Then delete "filters.db3".

Try again.

Thanks, It was the protection of the filters.db3. I just set it for users full control.
BTW, best practice is to rename a file and not delete.

DB3's can't be repaired if they're damaged so, I don't see the point of keeping them around.
