File name: begins with, contains...

[dcwul62]

I was seeking a way to find duplicate files based on size AND file names start with ... a specific text.
Currently available 'Same file name', 'Same extension', 'Similar file names' ..
In the Selection Assistant, there is an option "FIle Names" (Contains, Start with...)

maybe add this to scan criteria?

This to avoid having a boatload of other duplicates that I am not focussing on at this moment.

Just a positively meant idea (assuming this option is not already available)
No criticism.

Thanks.

It's not obvious, but assuming this is what you want you can just edit the file filter:-
-On the Criteria Tab, uncheck All File Extensions
-Change 'Included' to be something like, for example:

Code: Select all

MyName*.*

or

Code: Select all

MyName*.jpg

You can even have multiple settings by separating them with a semicolon

Many thanks.
Wow.... this feature is quite hidden!
I believe it deserves some more attention, so to say.
Would never have found it to be honest.

Again, many thanks!
