Comparison option for Parent Folder
Posted: 22 Jul 2026, 18:25
Hi,
my backup software does not always acknowledge when files are moved from on folder to another. So I end up with a folder of photos in different places in my backup, f.e. "MyTrip 2026". The same photos might also be located in backup folders from iCloud or OneDrive.
So there are four identical photo files but I'd like to cleanup files only where the parent folder is named "MyTrip 2026" and not "iCloud" or "Camera Roll".
Can this somehow be achieved? An option "parent folder name must match" or (nice to have) "2 parent folders must match" would do the trick.
thank you!
