Okay... I just finished installing Megan's drop shadows, in PSE5, on Vista.

The file needs to go into 2 places (I'm not sure about the .xml file I've never had to mess with that)
(Make sure the file & the Effect file is named the same. )

Here:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 5.0\Presets\Styles

& here:
C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\5.0\Photo Creations\special effects\layer styles

If they still won't show up after you have them in both spots you need to rebuild the mediadatabase.
Go here:
C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\5.0
Rename the file named: MediaDatabase.DB3 to MediaDatabaseOLD.DB3 (it will stay there & you can reload it if you need to. Don’t worry – Photoshop will rebuild it the next time you open the program.

Restart. It should show up.
