Limit of 100 Groups

Post by john_jeffrey@msn.com »

I am totally new to Duplicate Cleaner, so I may be missing something quite basic; but so far I have found that I cannot delete any duplicate files if my search has generated 100 groups or more - I can't even delete (say) the first 100. Is this limit a feature of the software? Or do I need to change a setting somewhere? At the moment I have to restrict the breadth of each search so that it doesn't find too many duplicates (or at least groups containing duplicates); this is going to take for ever!

You are using the unregistered trial version - it's limited to group nos 1-100, and won't delete outside those group numbers.

To solve this you can either register the software or use the free version.

OK, that's quite clear, thanks. If I register, will there be any numerical limit at all?

No, there is no built-in limit.
