Problems Comparing Files

Post by ButchZ »

I use a lot of fonts
I place both ttf & otf in a folder to compare
I am trying to compare same files names but different extensions and to mark the ttf to delete

Example:

Brandon.otf
Brandon.ttf

I am having trouble #1 having pro version finding the actual duplicate and
#2 marking the ttf in each compare so I can delete

Can somebody help me a bit so I can learn how to do this as I work with tons of fonts and images
but not understanding the new layout

TIA

Fonts may be in a system folder. Try unchecking the 'Skip system folders' setting?

nah, I dont see a setting like that

These are all on a NAS drive and downloaded so not in the system folder yet
OTF are newer type of the fonts, so to save space because I have like 10,000 fonts, IM trying to delete all the duplicate TTF fonts

Thanks anyway

Regular mode scan, Ignore content
then
More duplicate options, Same file name
(do not check, Same file extension)

Wouldn't that find your files?

Then it's simply a matter of Selecting your .ttf files.
