unable to mark files for deletion, by "Mark by Location"
Manually clicking checkboxes works OK, but NOT "Mark by location" See attached.

Re: unable to mark files for deletion, by "Mark by Location"
You have, "Mark the file in this folder that have duplicates elsewhere" enabled.
So... do you have files that meet that criteria?
For instance, you have B0001077.jpe & B0001077-1.jpe, which one might expect are duplicates, & lets say they are.
But they are both in (what seems to be) /Mylio_b98e42/Imp.../ so if they are duplicates, & if they are in fact in the same directory, they would not meet your selected criteria.
So, do you have B0001077.jpe also elsewhere, outside of /Mylio_b98e42/Imp.../, say in /Users/willie/ ?
If so, you would then expect B0001077.jpe to be marked for deletion.
