Title: Not caching/comparing any files
Post by: Quimby on May 04, 2013, 10:47:11
Hi,

first: thanks for this great product. i've use it onced in the past and it worked great. now i want to find again my dupes, but the program isn't caching any files. I tried all combinations of options and different folders. Similarity goes through the files (I can hear my hard disk working) but "Cache" always stays at 0 and Results pane is empty. I tried x86 and x64 version.

Can you try latest beta version[url] and send us logs from "%appdata%\Similarity\logs" folder (enter in Explorer) after new scan in beta version. (http://www.similarityapp.com/forum/index.php?topic=1490.0)

Thank you for your response. Looks like I was too stupid to have a look at the appdata folder. The logfile says:

Code: [Select]

I then came to my mind that I am using Windows 7 N (EU-Version without Windows Media Player). After downloading und installing newest WMP everything is working flawlessly! Cool.

greetings
