Some good stuff but not great for all workflows

The program seems to do a good job at finding duplicates between a set of directories but unfortunately the AutoSelect behavior limits its usefulness for my workflow — I am trying to use it to verify that all the pictures from a memory card have been copief onto my computer before wiping them from the memory card.

Unfortunately the AutoSelect logic only allows the “one-button select” of the copies on the computer for deletion, when I am looking for the exact opposite — I would like to AutoSelect the originals on the memory card and delete those instead. If I want to use Duplicate Detective I have to manually select each and every duplicate file on the memory card which is cumbersome and not worth the time & pain. I did contact FipLab about adding this capability; they seem to be aware of the feature but can’t offer any feedback for getting to it or implementing it. In the meantime Duplicate Detecteve is not really useful to me, so back to running my 8+ year old version of ACDSee in a Windows XP virtual machine — ACDSee’s Find Duplicate function gives me the desired one-button-select behavior I need for my workflow.
