Just a tip.
Some SwordSearcher users like to use Microsoft SkyDrive to sync their user modules between PCs. If you are using Windows 8.1, this may or may not work by default any more, due to a change in how SkyDrive syncs files.
By default, files synced with SkyDrive are no longer downloaded to other PCs automatically, but instead are "smart files" in Explorer that are downloaded as-needed by Explorer. The problem is that regular applications like SwordSearcher don't see these "smart files" and so user modules created in SkyDrive folders, in Windows 8.1, don't show up on other PCs in SwordSearcher.
All you have to do to fix this is make the SwordSearcher modules folder in SkyDrive available offline. For example, if you have created a "SwordSearcher Modules" folder in your SkyDrive, on your other PCs you just need to open Explorer, right-click that folder, and select "Make available offline." From that point on, on that PC, the user modules will be visible to SwordSearcher and SkyDrive will automatically synchronize them.
