I've read through the help file and looked all over the new NoClone website, classic website and both newer forums (support.reasonablesw.com/forums; discuss-duplicatefilefinder.noclone.net) without gleaning any helpful advice (Master directory gets mentioned but doesn't work for me), even a major session of experimentation hasn't helped.  It looks like "Compare folders" is probably the best way to do it but it's not the same and I can't determine what "Duplicates in" "Any sets", "Both sets" "Both sets & file set 2" actually do and they don't get mentioned anywhere that I've found. My questions are this: Where is "Compare folder" explained?  How can I do search target and area in the most recent version of NoClone? Overall NoClone is a great piece of software but it's documentation and website hasn't kept up with the newer version's design and features. Thanks.    Report
