Automatic Selection of File Duplicates
Posted: 21 Nov 2014 08:24
Hi all.
I need some help here.
I have some synchronization problems with my cloud service, SugarSync. I have emailed them regarding this issue but they said it is beyond their control since they advised not to sync program files throughout cloud.
With this limitation, thus I have several backup files done by SugarSync whenever they detected file locking of that file (means two or my devices are accessing the file at that time).
For example, for a simple file fsc,db, it generates 14 other copies on my computer:
The pattern used is
So, I thought XYplorer scripting advantage might help in this case whereby I want to keep only the latest file ONLY IF the FILESIZE if BIGGER, delete others.
Is is possible to achieve this? The duplicates will exist in various location however.
Thanks in advanced for the help.
