Re: Perhaps it's time to support multithreading scanning.

Looking at multithreading for the file tree building for version 6. With the other scan modes it'll depend on the scan type as some of the third party libraries may not multithread well.

Re: Feature request: jpg vs raw

There is a wizard to find image pairs - it groups image files in the same folder with the same name (but different file ext).
This could be useful in your case. It's called - "fast find image file pairs"
Note it doesn't compare by content at all - just by the name.

Re: Safe to turn off antivirus if drive previously scanned?

It should be OK - the program just reads the file as a stream of bytes (assuming you are hashing). It doesn't execute the file.

Re: Allow the Scan Tab (>) effect a scan

One thing that may help is turning on the Toolbar (settings). You'll then get a Scan button you can access from any tab.

Re: Duplicate Files, Thumbnail view, Focus/Highlighting is not obvious

Will check - I haven't managed to reproduce the F6 error so far. Will need to look at the code...

The thumbnail view is a bit of a hack and I'd like to improve the navigation if I can.

Re: Feature Request: List inaccessible/skipped folders.

Check the log file - this should list all skipped / errored files and folders.

Not sure of a program to test access to everything, sorry.

Re: DuplicateCleaner, Find in List - does not Find

Thanks for the feedback
In thumb view, scrolling to found files is broken a can't be fixed currently (will remove option). However, 'use as filter' does work well here (as in the other modes).

Re: Column Width Sizing, does not retain Column Widths, necessarily

Looking into this - seems there is a problem storing the column size when it is resized by double-clicking
