There are some rules related to temp paths but I doubt that they apply to your situation.
I think that was the problem. I added a new folder called tempkeep, moved the directory I was testing earlier to that directory now examdiff pro works correctly. I'm not sure why you'd want to ...

Sorry, I thought I'd said that earlier: C:\Temp

For a new comparison EDPro always remembers the last compared pair (separately for files and directories).
(sorry I missed the latest reply - just in here checking and noticed it). I'm not sure I understand your question. There are some rules related to temp paths but I doubt that they apply to ...

I wonder why it's not doing that for me. Do you see in my image how I've been comparing two files named categorygridpage.ascx in different directories? When I click on compare new pair file2 stays the same but file 1 picks up a different file and directory. Could it have something to do with the ...

I love this product so much I hate to complain but maybe it's just that I have a wrong setting.
When I click on compare new pair I'd like it to just leave what I have alone until I change it. Quit guessing!
I have options
enable autopick off (no check mark)
retain file directory pair on .. i've ...

Thanks! I missed the response until just now. Does this forum automatically subscribe you when your the author? If not, could that be an option?

it's irritating when I have file 2 or directory 2 set the way I want it (from a previous compare) then change file 1 or directory 1 to setup for another compare only to find that examdiff pro has "guessed" at what I want in file or directory 2 ... If there is an option to turn that off I haven't ...

Actually I've tried a couple times ... just tried again ... I keep getting to the review results page, positioned at the bottom, with the over 13 ...

Thank you, this definitely helps. Please try the latest build of 4.0 (4.0.2.2), the bug should be fixed there.
I just beat the bejesus out of the uppper scroll bar and couldn't get it to fail --- good job ... it was failing everytime I touched that scroll bar last night.
Have I told you lately ...

Unhandled exception at 0x00451dec in ExamDiff.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x00000040.

I guess I'll need to reinstall 4.0 or not?

I allowed microsoft visual studio to debug ... I see this: unhandled exception at 0x00451cf3 in ExamDiff.exe: 0xC00000005: Access violation reading location 0x00000040
selected break and got the attached image.

Any chance of getting your zipped folders?
I'm uploading one zip file. Create two directories and delete a few files from one of the directories, that pretty much is what I was doing --- synchronizing my utility batch files on two computers. I could not duplicate the problem on a second computer ...

This is an odd one. Obviously, I couldn't reproduce it. Could you export your options to a file and attach it here, as well as a screenshot?

An unhandled win32 exception occurred in ExamDiff.exe (6140)
I've tried it three or four times and the abort occurred each time. I guess I better not poke my eye ...
