Find Duplicates: "Exclude reference album" - help needed
Hi all, I'm trying to use the Find Duplicates tool to compare two specific folders against each other, with one folder acting as the "source of truth" and asymmetric results (only want matches where the duplicate is in the other folder, not within the reference folder itself).
What I'm trying to do:
- Folder A = reference/original collection
- Folder B = folder I want to scan for duplicates of things already in A
- Goal: only see results where an image in B duplicates an image in A — not A-vs-A matches, not B-vs-B matches.
I tried probably almost every combination of parameters, but can't get what I want. The results still include pairs where both images are inside folder A (i.e. A-vs-A matches) or where both images are inside folder B. I expected only A→B matches.
Any suggestions?
P.S. More context about use case: Android filesystem dump. References are in DCIM folder, duplicates in Messenger/Telegram/Facebook/etc folders. I want to get rid of images I made with my camera and shared them via apps.
