how to exclude files listed but NOT downloaded from Onedrive?

Post by LGS666 »

Hi there

I have a lot of files and directories whose name is visible on my PC in the "onedrive" directory, (reflecting all the files I have on the cloud storage) but as for many users, only a part of them is physically downloaded on my machine

How could I parameter Duplicate Cleaner so that it scans all my local Onedrive directory based on the files content, but *ONLY* looking at the files physically stored on the drive? (so not being obliged to download everything else just for comparison purpose)

At this time I use the "file name+size+extension only" setting as a "workaround" but this is not satisfactory.

Thanks a lot

L.

This isn't possible with the current version - it would need a custom check to check if the file is available (downloaded) by OneDrive, and if not, skip it.
I'll add this to the 'to-do' list!
