AllSync & AllDup

Example of the location(s) scanned (& likewise, where duplicates were found)? Possible (though I don't know offhand) that if the dups are found under different user accounts (or some other "protected" place); like c:/users/ed & c:/users/joe, ed might not (?) be able to delete pictu...

Only that my brain finds it hard to comprehend the "NOT" meaning. If you say find the first, I know what that means find the longest, I know what that means find the tallest, I know what that means find the newest, I know what that means find the oldest, I know what that means ... but when...

Yes, but sometimes I'll catch something like: ERROR: Could not find the end of the image data (EOI) at the last 18000 bytes of the file 'T:\+o._e-fat-e-ccc-2\070499\00287.jpg'! And if that's what he's after... That can occur with in a Context scan, when Ignore metadata of JPEG/CR2 files is also enab...

Display Search Method in the Titlebar That would be nice. as it is, i'll change between various search methods, depending... typically, the first thing i'll do is to add my directories once added, i could then immediately search - but, at that point, i am unsure which Search Method had been selected...

(Food for thought...) Select terminology is in the negative, which makes it confusing (at least for me). Existing: ---> Proposed (heh): Select all EXCEPT the first ---> Select the first " EXCEPT the newest ---> Select the newest " EXCEPT the largest ---> Select the largest (granted, it's b...

What is a "checksum error" in a photo?

Is that where AllDup logs something (like) "could not read the final 1800 bytes of xxx.png" ?

after 7 hours it found 135,000 duplicates, man thats a lot. Anyway it crashed and all my hard work was forgotten Do note that once a scan has finished, in the Results window, you are able to save those results (prior to doing anything else). Search Result -> Save (Save as) Then, if you happen to cr...

Search Method checkboxes may be lost (unchecked), when changing Search Methods. Set: Search Method; Find duplicate files on the basis of their properties Enable; File content Perform a search Go back to, Search Method - at that point, File content is still enabled Change Search Method to Find Simila...

Search Method, Pictures -> Formats,
does not have a checkbox for ICO (icon) file format.

Granted, an .ico may contain 1 or more images, but you should still be able to choose that format.


(In my case, I simply renamed my files from .ico to .ico.png, & that was sufficient.)

AllDup 4.5.42

ah, you're right, i did in fact set hotkeys
F6, copy path+name
F5, copy path
F12, copy name

Aside from the issue itself, you might check what you can see with Process Hacker. https://processhacker.sourceforge.io/ When this happens, open Process Hacker. Right-click the Alldup.exe process & one of the items displayed will be Window . If Window is grayed out, there is no "window"...

Crash in Results List upon hitting F12 (AFAIK) (as far as I remember) F12 isn't mapped to anything, yet it caused a crash. And then I was able to duplicate it (using the same source directories & search). And then I was not able to get it to occur again. I didn't note anything odd in any way, ex...

Don't know if it matters, but when you installed, did you install only for the current user, or for all users?

Might some other program that adds a context-menu item be interfering with AllDup's (on your end)?

Well color me confused?
(I don't know that I've particularly run an Image dup search before ? & I'll assume these are default values?)
Anyhow, showing as 100% match, much less that it found dups, seems... odd?

Is it possible to send you two sample files to test on your side?

Or you could zip them & upload them to a place like:

or

(and post the link here).
