After updating to version 4.50, I find that the skins I already had installed no longer show up as being so.

When I try to re-install a particular skin from the web, I find it is no longer available. (FreeAmp Readable - it's the BEST skin ever!)

Since I already have the skin on my system, I need to know where QCD now stores them, so I can move the installed skins to the new location.

You probably checked the 'install for all users' option in the installer, so go into Preferences->Player and uncheck 'per-user settings' and restart. Your skins will be back.

And the skin you're looking for is here: http://www.quinnware.com/skins.php?skin=123

I did indeed check "Install for All Users" because I didn't want to have two seperate 'installations' on my Windows XP system. I wanted all instances of QCD to look and act the same. I will try the suggested solution.

And thanks for the skin location. I didn't realize it was called "QCD FreeAmp", I thought it was just "FreeAmp". This explains why an alphebetical search did not yield the proper results.

If you want to keep the multi-user option, just set the skin folder setting to the <qcd install folder>/Skins which is where your previous skin are located.

That worked perfectly. Thanks for the help.
