Uh oh!
There was an error while loading. Please reload this page.
In an attempt to recover from several failing drives and a panic-driven relocation of files on the failing drives, the results of my initial scan WAS: Found 3715 duplicate files in 2425 groups. While it's an impressive number that can certainly recover me a lot of space when the dupes are removed, it's also far too much work to do click by click.
I'd like to select dupes programmatically, probably by using regex, but I'm clueless as to how to do that much less where to do it. (I'm using Krokiet 11.0.1). Here's a clip from some of the results.

What I want: If there is a group of four files, like the first group above, I want to programmatically select all files that are NOT within the DAM folder structure. In this case this would leave me with the third file in the group.
Regarding the second group, at this point, since none of the images are part of the DAM group, no files would get selected.
So, bottom line, of the 8 files shown, three would be selected for deletion.
Thanks, in advance for any help. I'm new to this software and therefore this community. As I learn more, I hope to be able to make contributions...
