Clone Remover: let’s travel together (the fourth part)

Hi!

We’ve approached to the most responsible moment in our travel: we must decide what duplicate files to save and what ones to remove from HDD. At this stage it’s also important not to remove all them casually . For these purposes the system of labels which is on the page of the found duplicates is created. We’ll get acquainted with it closer.

So in the top window part a panel of control for the received results is located. We’ll discern the buttons (from left to right). The button “to execute” starts the chosen duplicate files on performance. Buttons “to check” and «to check copies» marks the found duplicate files - one or all copies. The command «to check automatically» sets an automatic mark of the found duplicate files with certain attributes: criteria, catalogue (that is location) and type (extension). Due to the option the files satisfying to command parameters will be automatically checked at finding as duplicate files.

The attribute “criteria” includes dates of creation and change and also files size. Now filter is accessible. Due to it you can choose the folders (in which duplicate files are) or extensions which the program won’t allocate at automatic allocation. For example if you have searched for duplicate files in a folder with music and in a folder with term files but you want to check duplicate files only in the folder with music it is enough to mark «to not check files from the next folders» on “catalogues” of the filter.

The next two commands are «to check all» and «to remove marks» set and remove marks for all found duplicate files. Remember the program shows both unique files and their copies as results. Therefore check only copies differently you risk to lose original files.

The command «to invert marks» changes a mark condition. If a file (group of files) is marked use the button «to invert marks» to remove marks and on the contrary. The last command «to keep search results» saves the duplicate file search results as a separate MRS file. We’ll remind you could open it in the choice of one of the options at the Clone Remover start.

Our travel is gradually coming to the end. In the following post we’ll talk about what to do with the allocated duplicate files and we’ll bring short results. Bye!
