The Wiki process works fine.  I am able to generate a list of duplicates.  Is there a way to get the list to NOT scroll back to the top each time I highlight and delete a file.  The list is rather large and scrolling back down to where I was last after every deletion is a real PITA.

While this isn't a fix, I have a possible workaround.

For all your duplicates you could temporarily co-opt a field, say the comments field.  For every duplicate you could put whatever you want in the Comment field, like the letter X.  Then once you are done marking everything as a dupe do a search to only display files where the comment field equals X and then delete all the results.

So the script would be Comments=X instead of ~dup=[File Size],[Name]?

What I am saying is continue doing what you're doing now, but instead of deleting the files, which causes everything to jump to the top, add an X to the comment field (or whatever field you want, one that is normally empty).  Then once you are done identifying your dupes search for [Comment]=[ x ]  This will then show you everything that you've deemed a duplicate and you can select them all and then delete them.

Yes, I understood.  Simply was not aware of the correct command syntax.  Thanks, I'll try that.

The actual term will be

Code: [Select]

[Comment]=[x]
(No spaces) The forum was messing with it before
