What\u2019s New in Version 5.9.0.1<\/strong><\/p>\n

Corrected Duplicate\u2011Group Numbering<\/strong>
Previously, when users deleted or moved files from certain groups, the remaining group numbers were misaligned. This often caused confusion and triggered warnings like “All files in group XXX are checked for delete\/move,” even when incorrect. The latest version fixes this issue by ensuring accurate and consistent group numbering post-action.<\/p>\n

Project\u2011Level Persistence for Scan Options<\/strong>
Two vital scan parameters-\u201cCompare only files with same extensions\u201d<\/strong> and \u201cDo not compare file extensions\u201d<\/strong>-are now saved within project files. This eliminates the need to reset these preferences manually every time a project is reopened, making recurring scans more efficient and consistent.<\/p>\n

Pro\u2011Only Quick\u2011Check Mode: Match Full Path<\/strong>
For Pro users, a new \u201cMatch full path\u201d<\/strong> option has been added to the Quick\u2011Check filters. This powerful feature enables users to match patterns across the full file path-not just the filename. For example, searching for *holiday*<\/code> will match any file stored in folders with \u201choliday\u201d in the name, regardless of the file\u2019s actual name.<\/p>\n

Why These Updates Matter<\/strong><\/p>\n

Improved Accuracy<\/strong>
The corrected group numbering ensures that duplicate file groups remain clearly labeled, minimizing the risk of accidental deletions and boosting user confidence during cleanup operations.<\/p>\n

Efficient Workflow<\/strong>
Saving scan options within projects allows for faster repeat scans. Power users working with scheduled cleanups or large file repositories will benefit from this streamlined setup.<\/p>\n

Smarter Auto\u2011Selection (Pro Feature)<\/strong>
The \u201cMatch full path\u201d feature empowers users to automate duplicate selection more precisely based on folder structure or specific storage areas, leading to cleaner results with less effort.<\/p>\n
