Hi everybody
I have two folders A and B. I'd like to delete duplicates which are in folder B.
So at the first step I select folders A and B.
Then as a search method I choose "file content".
Search Options - nothing checked.
Start searching - some files have been found which are in both folders.
So far so good.
Now I want to delete duplicate files from the B folder.
In another words: if file xxx exists in folder A and exists in folder B, I'd like to delete from the folder B.
So I should select files from the folder B which are duplikates of files from the folder A.
I have used: Select -> Select all duplicates of files from the folder: -> (here I have a choice of folder A or B) B
And just a small shock: selected files are from the folder A
Have I missed something? Or this is the bug? Or I am crazy stupid and I don't understand how it work?
I appreciate any help, thanx

Re: AllDup 4.0 - strange selection
You misunderstood the function "Select all duplicates of files from the folder":
Choosing folder B will do this:
Select all other duplicates at the search result "of files from the folder B"
Choosing folder B will do this:
Select all other duplicates at the search result "of files from the folder B"
