AllSync & AllDup

The progress screen shows the current number of detected duplicates (and the percentage), but could it also show the size of those files as seen below?

I finally (:oops:) figured out how to use the File preview function (the command is in the Search Result menu; I guess I was looking for an option in the context-menu when clicking on files). The file preview is wonderful and really helps when weeding out picture files. 8) The problem is that when y...

When you turn off the hard-link column in the Search Results window, it does not remember the setting like it does for the other columns. The next time that a Search Results window is opened, the hard-link column is displayed regardless of what was selected.

Problem fixed. It feels smooth now. Nice work.

Okay, I understand. It’s a not huge problem, mostly just when there are thousands of items in the search results; it feels a little uncomfortable to use the wheel, but the scrollbar can work.

Ah okay. I did not think to check the window classes; you are right, one is ThunderRT6ListBox and the other is AfxOleControl42. Thanks for pointing that out. It’s too bad that they did not consider the problem. Have they updated the control to fix it? If not, would an alternative control work? It ma...

You can see the problem in the main UI: Make sure that there are enough items in the Source Folder , Folder Filter , and File Filter (and Search Results ) lists to enable the scrollbars Use the mouse-wheel to scroll each of the list controls (without holding Shift) Observe responsiveness You’ll noti...

Hi, I just got an error message from AllDup about overlapping source folders even though they don’t overlap. Here’s an example to demonstrate the problem: Include Path Subs [x] C:\Pics\Animals [ ] [x] C:\Pics\Animals\Cats [x] It says C:\Pics\Animals and C:\Pics\Animals\Cats overlap, which is true if...

Does it then delete folders that it deleted folders from too?

In the File Manager dialog of AllDup’s Results window, there is an option to Delete Empty Folders . What exactly does this do? Presumably it deletes folders that have no files or folders in them, but specifically, what folders does it apply to? Does it remove all folders that are empty or only ones ...

Hi, I just tried out the scan-in-archives function and it was pretty handy, but I noticed a problem. In the results window, if you use the remove-no-longer-present-files function, ALL files from archives are removed from the results list. I imagine that would be quite frustrating if you just spent a...

Hi, When you start a search, AllDup asks if you want to use the file and folder filters. Selecting Yes, causes both file and folder filters to be active, but selecting no only disables folder filters; file filters are still active and must be turned off in the main interface to not use them for a se...

Hi, Sometimes when a lot of folders (or drives), containing lots of files are selected, the file-counting procedure takes a while. That's fine; there's nothing that can be done about that. What would be nice however is if the progress shown at the bottom which shows the number of files that have bee...

Pressing the Space bar in the Source Folder list in version 2.x of AllDup would enable/disable the selected folder, but it no longer works in 3.x. Now you must use the mouse to toggle a folder which can be really frustrating if there are a bunch of folders.

Hi, AllDup's analysis speed is terrific, but navigating the results can excruciatingly slow. Pressing Up/Down takes too long to move to the previous/next item, and scrolling the mouse-wheel scrolls only one line at a time regardless of what it is set to in the system (eg Control Panel->Mouse->Wheel)...
