Re: Duplicate Folders Problem/Bug


The only thing is that the program will write licence information to the local machine when registered - it will ask for registration on each new machine.

is not really 'portable ...

Re: Duplicate Folders Problem/Bug

Thanks for your answers.
And I really like your decision that I could edit/mark files via SQL.
Already had one scenario for that:
Just the drive letter of an external HDD had changed, so DC had ...

Re: Duplicate Folders Problem/Bug


3- Will probably split System folders and hidden files into two options (with hidden on by default).


'Hidden on' by default, in my eyes is not such a good idea:
When you e.g. have folders with pictures in it, they often also contain a hidden database file. When you let DCP compare those folders ...

German Translation
After taking a closer look at the existing German translation, I found quite a few severe mistakes: Even false contents.
In the second half it looked like a Google translation. :(

So I decided to revise the language file.

I send you a pdf where are changes are tracked ...

German Translation

As a native German speaker, I just checked the German language file.
The translation is very good, just very few issues. All of them are minor issues, no real problems.
However, at the end there are a number of lines still in English.

If you want, I can translate them for you ...

Re: Duplicate Folders Problem/Bug


Did the folders in question contain files that had been removed (or copied in) after the scan?

No, they did not!


Bear in mind that the program works only with the files found at the time of the scan

Re: Duplicate Folders Problem/Bug


It sounds like some of the files are being excluded from the search for some reason. What file types are greyed out?

It may help if you post your Duplicate Cleaner log file (or send it to support if you don't want it publicly viewed).


I conducted a few more tests with some interesting findings ...
