<h1>Folder Selection<a class="headerlink" href="#folder-selection" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h1>
|

|
<p>The first window you see when you launch dupeGuru is the folder selection window. This windows
|
|||
|
|
contains the basic input dupeGuru needs to start a scan:</p>
|
|||
|
|
<ul class="simple">
|
|||
|
|
<li>An Application Mode selection</li>
|
|||
|
|
<li>A Scan Type selection</li>
|
|||
|
|
<li>Folders to scan</li>
|
|||
|
|
</ul>
|
|||
|
|
<div class="section" id="application-mode">
|
|||
|
|
<h2>Application Mode<a class="headerlink" href="#application-mode" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
|
|||
|
|
<p>dupeGuru had three main modes: Standard, Music and Picture.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>Standard is for any type of files. This makes this mode the most polyvalent, but it lacks
|
|||
|
|
specialized features other modes have.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>Music mode scans only music files, but it supports tags comparison and its results window has many
|
|||
|
|
audio-related informational columns.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>Picture mode scans only pictures, but its contents scan type is a powerful fuzzy matcher that can
|
|||
|
|
find pictures that are similar without being exactly the same.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>Choosing an application mode not only changes available scan types in the selector below, but also
|
|||
|
|
changes available options in the preferences panel. Thus, if you want to fine tune your scan, be
|
|||
|
|
sure to open the preferences panel <strong>after</strong> you’ve selected the application mode.</p>
|
|||
|

<div class="section" id="scan-type">
|
|||
|
|
<h2>Scan Type<a class="headerlink" href="#scan-type" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
|
|||
|
|
<p>This selector determines the type of the scan we’ll do. See <a class="reference internal" href="scan.html"><span class="doc">The scanning process</span></a> for details about scan
|
|||
|
|
types.</p>

|
<h2>Folder List<a class="headerlink" href="#folder-list" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
|
|||
|
|
<p>To add a folder, click on the <strong>+</strong> button. If you added folder before, a popup
|
|||
|
|
menu with a list of recent folders you added will pop. You can click on one of
|
|||
|
|
them to add it directly to your list. If you click on the first item of the
|
|||
|
|
popup menu, <strong>Add New Folder…</strong>, you will be prompted for a folder to add. If
|
|||
|
|
you never added a folder, no menu will pop and you will directly be prompted
|
|||
|
|
for a new folder to add.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>An alternate way to add folders to the list is to drag them in the list.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>To remove a folder, select the folder to remove and click on <strong>-</strong>. If a subfolder is selected when
|
|||
|
|
you click the button, the selected folder will be set to <strong>excluded</strong> state (see below) instead of
|
|||
|
|
being removed.</p>
|
|||
|
|
</div>
|
|||
|
|
<div class="section" id="folder-states">
|
|||
|
|
<h2>Folder states<a class="headerlink" href="#folder-states" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
|
|||
|
|
<p>Every folder can be in one of these 3 states:</p>
|
|||
|
|
<dl class="docutils">
|
|||
|
|
<dt><strong>Normal:</strong></dt>
|
|||
|
|
<dd>Duplicates found in this folder can be deleted.</dd>
|
|||
|
|
<dt><strong>Reference:</strong></dt>
|
|||
|
|
<dd>Duplicates found in this folder <strong>cannot</strong> be deleted. Files from this folder can
|
|||
|
|
only end up in <strong>reference</strong> position in the dupe group. If more than one file from reference
|
|||
|
|
folders end up in the same dupe group, only one will be kept. The others will be removed from
|
|||
|
|
the group.</dd>
|
|||
|
|
<dt><strong>Excluded:</strong></dt>
|
|||
|
|
<dd>Files in this directory will not be included in the scan.</dd>
|
|||
|
|
</dl>
|
|||
|
|
<p>The default state of a folder is, of course, <strong>Normal</strong>. You can use <strong>Reference</strong> state for a
|
|||
|
|
folder if you want to be sure that you won’t delete any file from it.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>When you set the state of a directory, all subfolders of this folder automatically inherit this
|
|||
|
|
state unless you explicitly set a subfolder’s state.</p>
|
|||

<div class="section" id="scan">
|

|
|
<h2>Scan<a class="headerlink" href="#scan" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
|

<p>When you’re ready, click on the <strong>Scan</strong> button to initiate the scanning process. When it’s done,
|
|||
|
|
you’ll be shown the <a class="reference internal" href="results.html"><span class="doc">Results</span></a>.</p>
