How can I limit it to specific folders? How do I select them? Is recycle bin the only choice?

You limit your input folders by just dragging across the ones you want to look in to the 'folders to scan' area.

If you mean how to limit the ones you delete, you can always click on a file and select 'Mark the files that duplicate this folder elsewhere' (Right-click menu), or try some of the other options in the selection assistant and right-click menu.

You can delete to recycle bin, or just delete permanently. You can also move or rename the files.

I'm puzzled. Where is the 'folders to scan' on my screen :?: I did accomplish the same function by hand typeing in the path.

Which version are you using? What does it say in the title bar?
