AllSync & AllDup

Have a couple sample pictures you can link to?

What determines, how are you defining, "corrupted"?

On the "main screen", Options -> User Interface, if you select Custom, you can set colors for various search result items.

(Till now, I never even looked at that area .)

Well, Blake3 of course [over 2]. That said, xxHash is (well) faster yet again. And given that (as far as I'm concerned) there is no need for a duplicate file checker to use a crypto hash (& in particular in that the hash data is only used "internally"), there is no reason to not use (I...

Certainly not an expected behavior & certainly not typical. Open AD. Quit. Task hang? Open AD. Run a scan. Quit. Task Hang? See if you can come up with a repeatable situation where Quitting hangs? And if so, particular settings you are using? Or even now, particular settings you are apt to use m...

Comparision, bHash -> Match 93%
- switch to MD5 (& with that Match is set to 100% [as expected])

Switch back to bHash.

At this point, bHash -> Match is 100% (rather then the previously set, 93%).


(4.5.48, I've not looked at .50 yet.)
edit: (.50 behaves the same)

Do you know if the search had completed before it disappeared?

What search parameters are you using?
Are you searching file meta-data, like exif data? If so, it might be coming across something it is not liking, & aborting?

(I've posted a couple "slow" reports, so I'll just link them here for reference:

Slow with Compare Between Different Folders
Slow Deletion)

So AllDup is ending up in your System Tray?
If so, maybe for some reason, the setting for AllDup had gotten set to Off?

Are A & B in the same directory tree? /pics/A /pics/B /pics/B/1/ /pics/B/2/ /pics/B/3/ If that's the case, simply move A outside of /pics/ [temporarily] then it should work (with Compare only files between different source folders). move /pics/A /outside/A With that, you'll then have: /outside/A...

For finding files, there is nothing better then Everything . Assuming you're wanting to find �, enter that as a search term. And if you want .lnk files, search for, � ext:lnk, should do it. (Be sure what you are finding is what you want to delete.) . Everything - Replacement Character, black diamond...

I (& others) have posted "slow" (due to various reasons, circumstances).
Review & see if there might be some commonality with your situation, Search: slow.

Most likely, this is a Win7 bug, when "aero" is disabled: Windows 7 and the old AltTabSettings=1 setting.

Everything - Renaming 4000 files to the same name.png I selected ~4000 files, in the same directory. (In this case, I loaded the directory, directly, rather then pasting 4000 file names in [which would take MUCH longer to do].) Selected all the files, & in the rename dialog, set the wanted file...

Alternatively, a file renamer. It would be a multi-step process... Select a set of files from within AllDup. (You can assign a hotkey to copy the file names to clipboard.) Paste said names into a file renamer - that is assuming a file renamer allows you to paste a diverse set of file names into it. ...

File Manager, allows you to 'Rename files'. Experiment with that (safely) & see what that might be able to do? IOW, if you deselect (if necessary) 'Do not process groups with all files selected', 'Rename files' -> allthesamename.%2, then all your same files should be named allthesamename.ext. I'...
