Wow, never noticed that before. So does that just toggle the display of the number of hardlinks, or does it actually change the behavior of the scan? Would the scan theoretically be faster if count is disabled?

Thanks for sticking with me on this and the prompt replies. I understand the point of excluding hardlinked files from the list and that they have to be counted before they could be excluded. My question is simply what is the point of having that first tickbox? I get that counting the hardlinks needs...

I'm not sure you understand (or maybe I don't). To my mind, having an option whether to "Count Hard-links in file" would mean that the user can select whether they are counted at all, or not...no? So it would seem to reason that if that box is not ticked, then hard links should not be coun...

I brought this up a while back in this post , but the issue still persists in 4.1.1. I can scan a folder, and deduplicate by creating hardlinks... Then I scan the same folder and the "Count Hard-links in file" is not ticked. Yet the hard links I just created end up in the list anyway. As I...

I am positive the drives are all NTFS, and I am only deduplicating within a single partition on a single drive. I did some experimenting and was able to replicate similar behavior by running the hardlink operation multiple times on the same data set. That is, scan a folder, and run a file removal op...

1) Choosing the hardlink option does not seem to actually do what it used to do, which is delete duplicates and put hardlinks in their place, freeing up space on the drive. Performing a hardlink operation actually takes up more space on the drive. (And the recycle bin stays the same). I have never h...

Figured I'd add mine from a while back... I started a thread ( here ) to ask if there was a way to accomplish what I was trying to do, but it seems the functionality is not yet available... (I'll just continue the original numbering) 5) "scan only against self" option for file paths 6) In ...

@dcoberlin, It took me a revisit to my dupes to get re-familiarized with Duplicate Cleaner and realize that you basically can accomplish what you're talking about with DC. There's actually a couple of different ways to do it, too. In fact, in a way, what you're describing is partially the process th...

As I said before, you just click the button next to the words "selection assistant". It features a magic wand and stars on it. Then highlight the "mark" menu with the green checkmark. It gives you all sorts of options about what to mark. I'm guessing you want to "select by g...

Check out that screenshot, and click the "selection assistant" in your program. It should be self explanatory from there.
