I am trying to compare two directories that have multiple subdirectories. I only want differences to show when the file size is different, I don't care about the date. The File difference Report is grayed out. Why is this grayed out?

I have been running the Folder comparison report and it always shows me the dates that are different too. Please tell me how to only show in a report when the file size is different.

Thanks for your help.

By default Beyond Compare will compare timestamp and size of files. To change this, select Session|Comparison Control. In the General tab, uncheck "Compare Timestamps".

The File Differences Report command only operates on files. If a folder is selected, it is disabled. If you want to generate a file differences report on all files, View|Expand All, then Edit|Select All Files.
