Be careful to use beta software, test with test data, not real data.
 

Hi,

Thanks for your support as beta testers. It was a delay of the release of NoClone 4 because this version involves the architectural changes of NoClone. I have co-authored with Peter Leung to make NoClone better and speed up development time. So far, we have completed the following features:

  1. Powerful scan:
    1. able to scan 1 million files at one single scan (fixed out of memory error)  - it requires 1-2 days but can be optimized before final release
    2. fix stack overflow error
    3. able to compare files larger than 2GB
    4. can read Unicode file name
    5. Responsive search - easer to cancel
    6. Define duplicate files
    7. Exclude by folder and file type
  2. Presentation
    1. Clear grouping of duplicate files
    2. New look
  3. Improved Smart Marker - sexy interface with tree view of folders to be marked plus sizable window
  4. Safe removal: SaveSpace - Replace with hard links
  5. Error log instead of prompt of errors to avoid interruption of scan

I am sorry that in order maintain the stability of code, 2 features have to be postponed. "compare more than 256 same-sized files" will be implemented before final release. "Compare mp3 tags" will be implemented after final release. The final release will be in the early of July.

The beta 2 can be installed from http://noclone.net/noclone4beta/publish.htm

Please be reminded that this is a beta software, you should test with test data only. Be careful not to mark all files for removal or both your mater and duplicates are deleted. Otherwise use at your own risk, we are not responsible for any loss caused.

The curent way to differentiate home users from business users is not a good way as many home users have their own LAN and external drives. So we propose a new pricing model for NoClone 4. Subscription is proposed instead of upgrade for future release. Yearly subscription include free upgrade and priority support during subscription period.

I downloaded Beta 2 this evening, and it appeared to install ok, but I can't get it to run. It pops up with an error dialog about having to have MDAC version 2.6 or newer to run.  What's strange about this is that I have version 2.8 installed!  I just grabbed the newest (version 2.8 SP1) and tried to install that, but got a message that mine was already up to date.   Ideas?

NoClone is no longer beta, final release did not use ClickOnce deployment, so please check if this installer has problem with MDAC 2.8 or not. Please download v4.0.10 at http://noclone.net/download.asp.
