Error adding items: 397 Object reference not set to an insta

Post by HiTechHiTouch »

I'm scanning a VIDEO_TS folder with a lot of hard links. At the end, this message box pops up.

DuplicateCleaner

Error adding items: 397
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------
Here's the results window:

I then see an empty Duplicate Files tab, and a Duplicate Folders tab with one pair containing 2 folders. I expected the Dup Files tab to have a couple of large groups, each containing one file and many hard links to that file.

The search settings:

What else would you like to see, pray tell?

Thanks,
Bug confirmed, when hard links present in list and set to be ignored.
Bug was introduced 3.0.7. Will fix in update 3.0.9.
Apologies!
