"Find similar files" - how to use it?
I tried the function "Find similar files" - and no matter which method I'm using (name, data, picture) - I get always the same result: "No files found".
At the end I copied "a.wmf" to "b.wmf" and "c.wmf" in the same directory - no results.
What is wrong?

Yes - of course. I started in the directory, removed and added it again - no results.xnview wrote:You have added a folder?
Is there a limitation on special filetypes? I have wmf, sld (AutoCAD) and dwg.

Strange, i've tested with jpeg & tiff, it works correctly.Peter2 wrote:Sorry - I tried again:
one directory with 1300 tifs and 107 MB
"Same file data" - after half a second: No files found.
"Similar picture" (similarity 54) - after half a second: No files found.
I copied "a.tif" to "b.tif" - No files found.
Could you send me your a.tif to check?
