"Same size" tolerance option

Compliments on a fantastic program that blows away the competition!

I think having a "tolerance" option (specified in bytes) for the "Same Size" search parameter would be quite useful, particularly when used in conjunction with the "Similar File Names" option.
It would be great for weeding out duplicate e-books/e-comics with minor name/size differences, as well as older versions of application installers.

I also love the previously suggested idea of labeling "critical" folders. Perhaps implementing a "priority level" for input folders would allow for greater versatility. The duplicate list can then highlight the result located in the folder with the highest priority level.

Thanks for the awesome tool!

Thanks for your suggestions!
I like the idea of a size tolerance option (for ignore content scans). I've added it to the list.

I like the recently added "ignore file extensions" option!

Has there been any progress on adding the size tolerance feature?

Thanks!

Still on the list - Most of the recent effort has gone towards 'under the hood' engine changes!
