When tagging over 230 250.000 files it stops tagging files. I cant tag anything anymore. Is this the maximum tags this program can handle?

The value itself doesn't look like XY hit a hard coded limit (e.g. for unsigned integers), so:
What is the file size of the tag.dat file?

Thanx for the fast reply,

My Tag.dat files is 102.400kb

Maybe that is the limitation here (1024 * 100). The developer (Don) needs to answer this question

No error message?

No not a error message at all.

So you are tagging 250,000 files? (What's that "230" in your subject line?)

IMO that's a bit abusive. Tagging was originally meant to manually and individually mark files to create an alternative layer of organization, independent of the folder structure layer.

May I ask what your tagging is about?

I have tested its 3 times with refreshed data folder. So the 230 means that I had another test and it stopped tagging at 230.000 files.
I am tagging : images, videos/movies, Games & software files and importand files for fast searching.

I guess you are hitting a memory limit at some point.

What kind of tag is that? Can you give a specific example of an image and how you tag it (size, contents, quality?), and how you search it?

Its Just a jpg file size around 100/200 kb, I tagging it with a script called foldername to tag :viewtopic.php?f=7&t=8449&p=75503&hilit= ... ags#p75503.

And I did it manyally by : select file jpg and go to -favorites -tags - and adding tags from there. I search it by the catalog clicking the tag names.
And still it not add tags anymore. And when delete some tags I can add some.

If you read my post here you see that I saw it coming already 5 years ago:

This is just not the intended usage of tags.
