When I first read the post saying to get it, it said to make a backup of the EXE before saving your changes.
But, regardless wheter there is a backup or not, if I do File>Save, it renames the EXE, EXE_original, and makes a new EXE with all the changes.
Was that post made before ResHacker was updated to include this, or did the poster just neglect to say that it did that?

I think that line is more of a Catch-all clause saying "I told ya so, don't blame me" incase something funky happens.

The reason people say this is because it's much easier to ruin a mod than to make one. If you only have 1 copy and you mess it up, you'd have to start all over. However, if you have backups, then you only lose a little work. So, people will tell you to do this regardless of what kind of modding tool you're using, even if that tool has features for "backup" already.
