I was afraid of that. ...and now includes a full skin reference at the very end. Ah, now that wasn't there before - thanks for the links and suggestions (guess I'm starting over, so ResHacker Sunday it is for me). Cheers. On the plus side, it appears I don't have to worry about skin7's - as I don't ...

Slightly off-topic, but I noticed that this doesn't happen for me, even though the option is checked... which led me to realise that I'm currently using a skin I modified a few years ago and never really needed to look at since (umm... 17-Dec-10?).

"Search files" always was aware of the search service being disabled (it was displayed in the tooltip), which is why the 'See More' entry was a bug - fixed in the new release, thankfully; thus the entry doesn't disappear solely because it's unchecked, it disappears because CS is now aware ...

I'm guessing it's a bug with res-hacker... For what it's worth, I've never seen any bloat in CS skin files using ResHacker, even after many many (many) edits of the same file.
