Thanks poopipe But it's outside of my knowledge unfortunately . Perhaps one day I will have time to master python and c# when on my retirement :) Found that Total commander I use can at least search (slow) for those sbs tags and labels using it searching inside files option. Never been able to get it from Windows itself.
No, it's XML. You can either make or find a tool that parses and searches XML or you can write a tool that uses the automation toolkit which specifically deals with SBS/sbsar files and has handy functions for pulling the data out You could probably build a Windows explorer plugin fairly easily or knock something up in c# -…
