I will look into this but some things to note:

Saved Searches add the ability to run SavedSearchGroups (multiple different searches) all sequentially, not just a single search. If you just want to treat it like a search repository to remember single searches you can do that, using Load Search and Find and Replace will give you better control in that case.

So...

1. Just like Find and Replace keeps state across a single search term and knows when done (all matches visited once), Saved Searches keep state across multiple searches. So when SavedSearches returns "No Searches Selected" means you have run all Saved Searches search terms in the selected Saved Search Group once and "No Matches Found" was returned for each.

2. In Saved Searches any time what to find, direction, or target set is changed, F&R does a restart for each new search, but SavedSearch will itself not rebuild the list of searches it wants to run until you tell it to run something else by changing selections in Saved Search.

So you should rarely need to run Restart in SavedSearches but you will need to change what you have selected to make SavedSearch reload its list of different searches to be done.

3. Count All in SavedSearch mode will count over the current list of all remaining searches to be done and will change depending on exactly which search matches have been changed so far. (multiple finds)

I hope something here helps. If you want to repeat a SavedSearch (single search or SavedSearch Group), just click on some other search and immediately click back and it will reload the just selected search group. Exactly the same way initially selecting it in SavedSearch did the first time.

All of these changes were needed to make it possible to skip over matches (no replacements) in a long list of search terms anytime you want without repeating them.

That was the requested feature.

1. Load a Saved Search and click Count All (let's say the result is 29)
2. Click Find 4 times in a row (which skips Replace on the first 3 matches)
3. Click Replace/Find for the rest of the matches until status is "No matches found"
4. Click Count All — status now reads: "No searches selected"
5. Go to Find & Replace box and click Restart — status now reads "Search will restart"
6. Go back to Saved Searches window and click "Count All" — status still reads "No searches selected"
7. But if I go back to Find & Replace box and do Count All from F&R box, it gives me the correct answer of 3.

If after Step 4 I load a new Saved Search (but don't click Find), then re-load original Saved Search and click Count All, I get "No matches found".
