You need to ADD them to the "known" libraries by going into the "Preferences/Libraries" menu.
ALSO, I would keep any "new" library in a separate folder, totally outside the KiCad path, some place you keep data that you may want to backup.

Subject: [kicad-users] Library problem , need help.
I'm sorry.
In EEschema library browser I find some 30 libraries.
However in the windows Program Folder there is a folder Library
with 2293 files.
I downloaded Zip files and added the in this folder but they do not show in the Kicad Library folder.
I do not often use Kicad so my "expertise" is minimal.
What am I doing wrong???
Please help,
