I did a test to see if making more than just one or two favorites in a session would present a problem.  I did ten new favorites.  I put 7 into sub folders that already existed and 3 into sub folders which I created during the Rename-Add process. I did not restart KM during the test.  I was able to verify the creation of each favorite by using the EDIT sub menu of FAVORITES.  I did find one thing that I did not expect.  I had used advanced prefrences to set up a "new items" sub folder prior to the test.  The name of the sub folder was "Unfiled_New".  On two of the 10 attempts to rename and add favorites I selected "Favorites".  On both of those attempts the favorite was actually added to Unfiled_New.  Unfiled_New is a sub folder of Favorites.

Between attempts number 9 and 10 I used advanced preferences to reset the new items folder to the default.  i.e. (not set)  On the tenth try I selected Favorites as the folder and the new favorite was correctly loaded there.

I did find that making a new folder, renaming it, and selecting the new, named folder was a multi-step process.  I had to select the folder for which the new folder would be a sub-folder,  click on "create a folder", right click on "new folder", choose to rename it, go back to the parent folder and return to the new renamed folder.  Only then would the new name show in the selected folder line.

In all of this I did not have an instance where the new favorite was not created imediately.  So far I have not solved the situation where the completion message box did not appear on your system.  I do not know if the computer or operating system make a difference or not.   I run XP-SP2 fully updated on a 1.80 gigahertz AMD Athlon 64 with 960 Megabytes of RAM.

I have an old laptop with a slow processor and 192 Megabytes of RAM.  I will get that out and try it to see if there any change.  I cannot change the fact that you must restart KM for these favorites to be included in the Favorites system,  but I want everyone who uses FavRenAdd to satisfied with it up to that point.[/quote]
