Great program !

But the ability to define which files to autoselect based on a similarity percentage of our choice is REALLY NEEDED.

a checkbox is a great idea.

4675 duplicates (down from ~5200).  If you had a checkbox in every one of those (many of which are false positives, probably at least a couple thousand), it would take me forever.  Using ctrl/shift/click to highlight more than one is good in this instance.  

Some people want autoselect.  Some people (like me) like it how it is.  Perhaps make it configurable so it can be either way.  

What I would REALLY like to see is the ability for Similarity to 'remember' your selections - it would be nice to NOT have to scan 15000 files and compare them every time I run the program.  Then I can choose to scan any new files I add to my machine and Similarity could bounce the results of scanning those files to the stored results from previous scans and wouldn't have to run the algorithms in real time, but could still tell me if any of the files in previous scans are matches for the new files.

Also, if I "ignore" a similarity match, it should remember it, but I should be able to go into a config file and "unignore" a match.

Great program, by the way!

I'm starting to see what abdu was talking about, I believe.

Let's say I have 2 files, one.mp3 and two.mp3.  If Similarity detects those as duplicate files, I get two sets of results:

PATH\one.mp3
    PATH\two.mp3
PATH\two.mp3
    PATH\one.mp3

If you delete (or ignore) just one of those files, it clears both sets of results.  THAT works properly.  But is there really a need to show both sets?  If one.mp3 is similar to two.mp3, doesn't it stand to reason the opposite is true?

I understand, but what we do in this situation:

one.mp3
two.mp3
three.mp3

two.mp3
one.mp3

three.mp3
one.mp3
four.mp3
five.mp3

it possible situation.

Saving results will be in future releases.

I think the problem is solved after the "Dont show duplicates under xx% similarity". In addition, it can be protected (ask confirmation) removal of two files with a high degree of similarity.

Thank you. I look forward to the next version (I hope it will appear soon).
