To create a new saved search, select the "Create a New Advanced Search" option from the drop-down menu:

After clicking on "Create a New Advanced Search," a pop-up window will appear where you can enter your data in the appropriate fields. If you would like to exit from this pop-up window you can click on the esc button from your keyboard.

Please note that once you name a new saved search, you will be unable to rename it (instead you would need to delete your saved search and create a new one).

Once you have finished inputting the required information, you can save the search, make it available to all users, or make it your default search:
