delete duplicate files

Post by *ismanpa »

Hello,

I fond duplicate files with the advanced button. A list of files is displayed. How can item from this list be deleted without having to do the search each time again after I go to a file and delete it. Some kind of batch delete?

Thank you!

Hello ismanpa,
At the moment it is not possible to remove a file from the list, even though it gets deleted from disk.

If you use Right Mouse Button mode (Config|Operation).
Then you could just mark the files you plan to delete and once all the files you intend to delete are marked - delete all the files at once.

I thought maybe Save Selection (Select all files in the Result List) then Selection Restore once changing Tabs to the previous Root folder and subdir branch view... but that didn't work at all.

Save Selection (Results List) to File , and Restore Selection (SubDir BranchView) from File didn't work either, though it did mark the files in the Root (of SubDir Branch) -- just none in any sub folders.

This is funny/ironic/amusing? something...

Normally people register to ask that nagging question that they can't find in a board search or something to that effect; perhaps the odd spammer.

Here we have two single-post Members which are oddly on-topic and registered just to recommend two competing duplicate file finder tools. You would think astroturfing perhaps... yet two in the same thread back to back is just odd.

Above we have a 3rd one. It took them almost 2 weeks to find this thread. Maybe it didn't come up earlier in google.

Hi "Balderstrom", I'm currently doing this, but isn't there a way to automate it. eg: how do you do this right mouse selection faster when having lotsand lots of files in different subdirectories.
Thank you
