Hi, Kim!

As I have been studying forward in the documentation, I have been trying things out to get my fingers (and mind) familiar with their operation, and ran into this just this morning. I'm running ZTW64.EXE on a Win7 64-bit system.

I had several folders containing different versions of ZTreeWin. (The older ones are carefully renamed so as not to accidentally get executed.) I tagged not only all of these folders, but also sub-folders that contained files that had been replaced by beta version updated files (so there can be 3 to 8 versions of a file -- I thought it would a good example to practice the options of the Compare Filter with). Then went to a parent directory and hit "B" (Branch Mode) (see screenshot).

Then I hit Alt-F4 (Compare Filter) and chose "N" (duplicates with Newest dates), and this is what was displayed (I hit Alt-F twice so I could see the dates).

[image]

After reading the section of the documentation on Compare Filters, I expected to see no duplicate file names (older versions and all but one with duplicate dates removed), but got this instead. There are several copies (e.g. ZSHELL64.EXEs) that have the same dates (which perhaps is where they were not removed). On the other hand, perhaps this is by design, and the documentation could be clarified? (I can see where showing THE FACT that there are duplicate names AND dates would be useful. Then if you were trying to get a single "newest set", then you could hand pick which ones you wanted to copy.)

Over to you, kind sir!
Best regards,
Vic
