Find Files with Different dot Extenders

Post by donaldschoengold »

I have many different dot extenders on my disk - RAW, CT2, AWR, JPEG, DxO. I would like to find files that have the same file name but different extenders - xxx.RAW, xxx.JPG, xxx.CR2.

I would also like to find files that have specific text as part of the file name
xxxname.jpeg, xxxnameyyy.jpg, nameyyy.jpg, name_1.jpg and name_2.jpg

Can I set up some sort of filters so that only these files come up when I do a duplicate search.

You can match by file name only (ignoring extension) by setting 'Same file name' and not 'Same file extension' in the Criteria tab

In the search filters on this same tab you can filter included files:
e.g.
*name.jpeg;*name*.jpeg
(Note this aren't filters to specify certain matches, they just filter the overall input file set)
