3 suggestions for the program

Hi

Here comes a little feedback on an very good program..

1.
How about the option to run a service on the machine in the background that scans all files even then the program is not active and puts the result in a MD5 hash-database or something.
Maybe scanning the biggest files first. This will speed up the process when we start the program to find dupes. So when the program starts the hash has already been collected for the files, it only have to check if the file has been moved or deleted since it last had been scanned by the silent/background scan (hopefully even find where it has been moved to)..

2.
The stop/abort-scan takes to long time to finish.

3.
The drives should also show the drivelabel, not just the driveletter.

Best regards

Sorry

Seems I got the name off the topic wrong. Can't find any way to change this. Would be glad if an moderator can change this for me to somthing like "3 suggestions for the program"..

1- interesting idea, though not on 'roadmap' at the minute.

2- The abort scan should react quickly on the latest versions 2.0.5+. If not, it may be in the middle of reading a large file.

3-good idea, will add this in.
Thanks!
