Use of the Duplicate Folder Feature
Posted: Sat Sep 21, 2013 11:27 pm
I am using the trial version of Pro to check out the Duplicate Folder feature, but I must misunderstand what it is supposed to do.
I have a zillion (rounded) pictures organized by year. Each year has subfolders titled "Pictures - Children," "Pictures - Sports," "Pictures - Vacations," etc. I want to go through and find all of the "Sports" folders to delete (I don't care what pictures are in them). I was interpreting the Duplicate Folder feature to be such that I could enter a folder name and duplicate folders would be identified, but apparently such is not the case. I suppose that I could search all .jpg files and then open them in Explorer to see the sub-folder in which they are contained, but that would be like looking for needles in a needle stack. Does anyone know a way to use this (or any other) feature to accomplish what I want to do?
Thanks for any insight.
P.S. If there is not a way to pull up duplicate folder names regardless of the content, this task might be considered for a future improvement.
