Re: AllDup not finding Known Dups

Update: As I suspected, it's a user error. I was comparing the wrong folders.
The duplicate pdf files were in my c:\users\username\onedrive\documents folder not in my c:\users\username\documents folder.
Once again, AllDup wins!

Re: AllDup not finding Known Dups

Yes it finds the duplicate text file easily. All the files not being "found" on the E drive are pdf files. There is no filter set for pdf files that I can see. I compared the hash values of the known duplicates with their counterparts on the D drive manually and they match. I also viewed t...

AllDup not finding Known Dups

I've been using AllDup for at least a year (probably more) and it has been great! I'm now using AllDup ver 4.5.48 with a clean install of Windows 11.

ALLDUP Finding Files that are not there

I'm using version 4.5.22 and searching for dups with same name and size.
The results show a match for 2 files that are no longer on the hard drive.

Re: Update to 4.4.47 Is Failing in Windows 10 20H2

Thanks.
Ignoring the warning and not shutting down windows explorer worked. Of the 3 computers I installed it on, the one with WIN10-20H2 is the only one that displayed the warning.

Update to 4.4.47 Is Failing in Windows 10 20H2

I'm having a problem updating AllDup 4.4.40 to 4.4.47 It asks to shutdown "explorer" to complete the installation. If I let it shutdown explore, things go bad. After aborting the update and restarting explorer, things get worse. After shutting down/rebooting all is fine and 4.4.40 still wo...
