You can search for and delete searches created by other users. This can be useful if a user or other administrator has created saved searches, but has since left the company. For more information, see Deleting Saved Searches for Administrators.

You can also set many search related preferences for your site such as determining whether a search includes only the latest version of an object rather than all versions, or setting the default types to search for global searches, and lock the preferences so that they cannot be changed at a lower level. For more information on search preferences, see Setting Search Preferences.
