Compare ONLY between two directory (trees) - INNER and OUTER dir

Post by pstein »

As far as I can see Duplicate Cleaner does NOT support dupe comparisons between 2 file sets (but not inside).

That means users cannot find dupes for example with (at least) one file in a directory (tree)

D:\aaa\bbb\ccc\

and another directory (tree)

D:\aaa\eee\

Dupes INSIDE one of the directory (trees) above should NOT be listed in results.

Or does this feature already exist?
if yes: How can I achieve this?

Keep in mind that the 2-file set comparison should also allow compare an outer with an inner directory (tree)

Example: Find all dupes with at least one instance in INNER directory (tree):

D:\aaa\bbb\ccc\

and one instance of the same file in OUTER directory

D:\ (minus/except D:\aaa\bbb\ccc\)

Can this feature be added in the next release?
