When EndNote is installed, by default only the most 'popular' import filters are installed.
Import Filters can be available on two places:
1. Generic for all users the default (non editable location) is the installation folder and sub folder 'Filters' (e.g. for Windows: 'C:\Program Files (x86)\EndNote X9\Filters\' and for Mac: 'Applications/EndNote X9/Filters').
2. Customized ('Save as'), user specific files will be stored in the folder which is defined in the folder on Windows: 'Edit > Preferences > Folder Locations > Filters' and on Mac: 'EndNote> Preferences > Folder Locations > Filters'.
