Where is uTempSearchUserInteractionDefinitions.inc?
What is the exact file path?

There is a directory "Stored" at the end, that is not in the above file.

What do you mean with auto-assigned units?

If the include file is in the same directory as the file that contains
the include directive (I guess this is here the case), then it should
find the include file even without any search path.
Unless you added some subpath to the include directive or the case does
not match.
What is the exact file name of the unit, the include file and what
exactly is your include directive?

You can see the include search path of every file in source editor's
popup menu / file settings / unit info / include paths.
