I ran a folder compare between a local folder and an FTP folder.
The Rules > Comparison tab has the following settings:
Despite these settings, files that should be identified as "same" are actually identified as "different". If I open any file in the result list, and then close it, BC immediately identifies it as "same" by changing its color from red to black.
Note that some of the files have different file sizes and others do not. But in both cases, opening the file shows no differences in the file. And since I disabled the quick tests, I expect the file size difference to be ignored.
Also, most files are being compared correctly. I think that only about 200 files or so out of several thousand are showing differences.
Am I misunderstanding these settings? Shouldn't these files have already been identified as "same" by these settings to begin with? Is there another setting that I'm missing?
