The reason why we release CloneSpy 2.4 as beta version is that it now comes with an installer with which we do not have any experience yet.

The reason why we release CloneSpy 2.4 as beta version is that it now comes with an installer with which we do not have any experience yet. In case you don't like installers: The installer allows you to solely unpack all contained files without registering CloneSpy 2.4 to Windows. If you do so, the program works like former versions: The CloneSpy files can still be copied to and run on other PCs.

We would like to address CloneSpy 2.4 beta to users that already have experience with former versions of CloneSpy and who would like to send in a short report about their experience with the new version. We are interested not only in bug reports but also in short notes in case CloneSpy 2.4 works for you. In either case please tell us which Windows version you use. You can contact us, e.g., via the Contact section.

Besides adding an installer to CloneSpy 2.4 we did some refactoring to existing code and introduced some new features. Therefore it would be nice if you could also test existing as well as new features. The new features are:

* Added: CloneSpy now comes with an installer. Alternatively, the program can still be unpacked and executed without installing it.
* Added: CloneSpy can now create hard links (see Deletion tab of the Options window).
* Added: Environment variables can now be used for specifying file and folder paths in CloneSpy (see Specifying paths in the help file).
* Added: All folders in the tree view of the View CSC-file window can now be expanded/collapsed at one time via context menu.
* Added: If a settings file is loaded automatically (see Command line options and Automation window) its path is displayed in the main window title.
* Added: The date can now be displayed in ISO 8601 format (see Time + Size tab of the Options window).
* Modified: Checking for a newer version is now activated by default (see the Menu bar of the Main window).
* Fixed: The list boxes in the Options window (see Files tab, Folders tab, and Names tab) now allow entries that are prefixes of other entries.
* Fixed: When merging CSC-files entries with the same name and content but different file path are no longer removed.

* Fixed: CloneSpy no longer crashes when started for the very first time which happened occasionally in version 2.4 beta 1 and 2.

Features:

Why was CloneSpy written?
Do you often download files from the Internet? Is your hard drive crowded with these files? Have you ever asked yourself which files you have downloaded more than once? Perhaps you have burned files to a CD and retrieved them again? Do you want to find these files and eliminate the duplicates? Maybe you want to find duplicate files without checking your entire collection of backup CDs every time? Then CloneSpy is the right tool for you!

What can CloneSpy do?
CloneSpy can help you free up hard drive space by detecting and removing duplicate files. Duplicate files have exactly the same contents regardless of their name, date, time and location. Also, CloneSpy is able to find files that are not exactly identical, but have the same file name. Perhaps you have different versions of a file and you want to find all of them and remove the older versions. CloneSpy can also find zero length files. These are files that have no content.

With CloneSpy you can process files which

*are duplicates
*are duplicates and have the same file name
*have the same file name
*have the same file name and (approximately) the same size
*are zero bytes long

CloneSpy offers you a complete mechanism for determining which duplicate or same-name files should be removed. It is also possible to leave this decision up to the individual user.

CloneSpy can handle equal files by

*deleting redundant files
*moving redundant files to a specific folder
*exporting a list of all equal files without removing any files
*deferring file operations on redundant files to a batch file where you can apply arbitrary file operations

With CloneSpy you can build checksum files from files on CDs (or even on hard drives, etc.) and use them to check whether these files already exist on your system. The checksum files will prevent you from having to play DJ every time you search for duplicates!

What's New in This Release:

* Added: CloneSpy now (hopefully) fully supports Unicode.
* Added: Output files can now be encoded in ANSI, OEM, or Unicode.
* Added: In two-pool mode you can now click on the legend of the Result presentation windows to mark all files of the corresponding pool.
* Modified: The Add folder window now remembers the last visited folder for each pool individually.
* Fixed: CloneSpy no longer fails on finding all equal files when searching for duplicates with the same name which happened in rare cases.
* Fixed: CloneSpy now handles files with sizes larger than 2 GB correctly.
* Fixed: When exporting file lists the %f column now gets correctly aligned.
* Fixed: Added version information to installer and CloneSpy executable.
* Fixed: Added explanations for the formerly \"unknown\" error code 120.
* Fixed: When adding a folder into a pool while its parent folder is in the other pool then the parent folder is correctly removed again (regression since v2.4).
* Fixed: The \"total time of scanning\" shown in the scan progress window no longer resets to 00:00:00 after 24 hours.

System Requirements:

No special requirements.
