I have QS 1.6.1 running on my MBA running High Sierra.

QS 1.5.9 is also on my MacPro3,1 running Mavericks.

I’d like the same mnemonics on both.

I copy/paste the mnemonics from the MBA to the MacPro Application Support folder and restart.

But the mnemonics don’t change.

Can this be done or …?

Are we there yet??!?!?!

The format of the file hasn’t changed, so this should work. It gets
updated pretty frequently, though. My guess is that the file is
overwritten (maybe more than once) faster than you can restart.

Try quitting QS before you replace the file, then start it up.

seems like Safari bookmarks are the biggest fail. Both versions of QS have the same version of the Safari plug, 2.4.2.

Are the bookmarks in the catalog and just not searchable by what you
expect, or are they missing from the catalog?

Oh, then it has nothing to do with replacing the Mnemonics.plist. Make
sure QS has Full Disk Access.

not on the Mavericks MacPro3,1.
Sys Prefs, Safari nor QS have a setting like that.
