Re: When selecting .txt, why are jpg also selected then?

When I select "All but one matching set in each group" then txt files are not listed
When I try filter txt files, then nothing is displayed.

How to just have duplicates .txt files displayed and then delete shortest file name, always leaving 1 in place.

thanks.

Some files are duplicate on purpose. Stored in different folders. Being duplicates of those specific files is okay. Sometimes there is a slight difference in file names: one is better than the other. With Shift-F6 I may copy the 'correct' file name to clipboard. So far, so good. Now I would like to ...

Re: Selecting by filetype - please help

Thanks again.

To avoid this one may wish to ex...
